DEVICE CONFIGURATION TABS
There are three (3) tabs for configuring DIGI KEYER. Each tab controls a part of DIGI KEYER's functions.
Any change to the first two (2) tabs are applied immediately to DIGI KEYER. Changes in Messages are
NOT applied automatically. To store them use buttons
Store
or

.
Ports
- used to assign virtual ports to the DIGI KEYER
for use by applications.
Keying
- used to configure timing of the PTT signal,
opertion of the FSK keyboard and the audio
porcessor.
Messages
– used to configure stored FSK messages.
Ports Tab
Once the virtual ports have been created they must be associated with a specific device channel (e.g.,
Control, CW, PTT, etc.). These assignments should correspond to settings of the application software and
must be configured first in Router then in the application (e.g., logging program, MMTTY, STREAM, etc.).
Proper configuration of the COM ports assigments in this tab is most important for intergration with
loggers. Read the following information carefully.
DIGI KEYER has seven functions with indication of the state and settings applied by the host application
–

General note:
Do not assign virtual ports to the channels which are not used by the application. It is
unnecessary and only consumes resources.
