Connection to Radio
The ICOM CI-V cable has a 1/8in (3.5mm) audio type plug on each end. Connect the cable to
the back of the SWL IR Remote control unit and then connect to the back of your radio to the
connection marked REMOTE. This will be a 1/8in (3.5mm) jack.
Plug in the wall power supply and plug into the back of the SWL IR Remote control box. The
power connector is located on the back left hand side of the control unit. The SWL IR Remote
draws very little power and does not include or need a power switch.
Note:
If you use the RS-232C connector on the back of your Transceiver, leave the SWL IR
Remote powered at all times or remove from the CI-V port if not powered. The RS-232C
connector will be disabled if the SWL IR Remote is plugged into the CI-V port and not powered
on. If the SWL IR Remote is connected and powered, it does not interfere with the normal
operation of the radio front panel, or the RS-232C computer port.
The default CI-V address is 5A. The default baud rate is 9600.
Radio Addressing
Be sure that the CI-V setting and baud rate on your radio are the same as the SWL IR Remote. If
you are unsure about whether or not your radio is set up correctly, check your user’s manual for
instructions on how to check and verify these settings. The SWL IR Remote CI-V address and
baud rate can be changed if necessary to fit your requirements. Just be sure that the settings
match those of your radio.
