SYSTEM SETTINGS TAB
System Power displays the input voltage at pin 1 of the Radio connector.
CI-V port settings: The CI-V port will emulate an Icom
transceiver and “broadcast” the frequency data if Router
can determine it by polling the rig or reading polling data
from the logging program. The transceive broadcast can
be used to control peripherals that use Icom protocol.
There are five frequencies which can be broadcast: RX frequency, TX frequency, Operating
frequency, VFO A frequency or VFO B frequency. In practice, operation of each setting depends on
the transceiver and its CAT protocol. All options may not work with some transceivers.
Baud Rate: sets the baud rate for the CI-V broadcast
Address: sets the “from” CI-V address for the CI-V broadcast
6 - SETTING AUDIO LEVELS
There are three pots on DIGI KEYER II for adjusting audio levels.
The TX Pot adjusts the level of audio to the transmitter. The RX MAIN Pot provides adjustment of the audio
from the radio (main receiver) to the sound card (computer) left channel. The RX SUB Pot provides
adjustment of the audio from the radio (sub-receiver) or a second receiver to the sound card (computer)
right channel.
IMPORTANT: Many transceivers, including all Yaesu transceivers, MUST be switched to a
special digital mode (DIG, PKT, DATA, USB-D/LSB-D etc.) to enable the rear panel line input!
Setting audio levels in Windows 2000 and Windows XP:
(for Vista or Windows 7, skip to the next section) .
1. On the Audio Mixer and select microHAM CODEC in both the TX and RX boxes.
2. Click on the "Get ID" button and confirm that the correct sound card is selected.
3. Set the front panel TX Pot to the 12:00 position.
4. Set the TX Master and Wave levels to 80.
5. Switch your transceiver to AFSK mode (PKT, DIG or DATA for Yaesu, LSB-D or USB-D for current Icom
transceivers, RTTY or RTTY-R on K2 and USB or LSB for Kenwood, TenTec and older Icom
transceivers). Do not select RTTY or FSK; they do not use the audio input.
6. Click the "Test Signal" button and adjust the TX WAVE slider for normal (rated) output on your
transceiver while keeping the ALC meter as low as possible.
