Connections
Figure 99: Connections
The internal keyer supports two inputs. We call these inputs the primary and secondary connections.
The primary connection will override the secondary input. This was designed with the idea that the
secondary connection might be used for automatic CW generation while the primary could be used with
manual paddles to override the automatic output.
Primary
: Select the connection to be used for the primary connection. Selecting “5000” allows
the use of the jack on the back of the FLEX-5000.
Secondary
: Select the connection to be used for the secondary connection. Selecting “CAT”
will allow use of the COM port that is currently being used by the CAT connection. This is useful
as some programs allow both CAT commands and COM port line keying for CW. Note that the
lower two controls will not show up if “None” is selected.
PTT Line
: Select the COM port line used for PTT.
Key Line
: Select the COM port line to be used to activate the key.
Options
Figure 100: Internal Keyer Options
Iambic
: Check this box to enable Iambic mode A emulation unless mode B is selected (see
below). With the box unchecked, the key input will act like a straight key.
Disable Monitor
: The monitor is typically turned on when using
Break In
with the internal
keyer. In order to keep the monitor off, check this option.
Rev. Paddles
: Using this option will reverse the paddle inputs so that the dot becomes a dash
and vice versa.
