Configure PowerSDR Keyer Connections
We can setup PowerSDR to connect to third party CW programs using the CAT port (i.e. the COM port
used for CAT control - COM 6 in Figure 157). To do so, on the PowerSDR Setup Form, select the DSP
Tab and then the Keyer Sub-Tab (Figure 158).

to the port you have your paddles or straight key
connected to (Figure 158 shows Radio to indicate the FLEX-3000 front panel key jack). Set
