[Q] Why use three ports? [A] Because the Pro3 can be used with ANY DATA software and ANY CAT
software (appropriate for your radio) and any CW keying program that supports WinKey.
Regardless of what DATA software and CAT software you use and what CW software you use, you
will NEVER have any conflict (provided you configure your software correctly of course).
Windows may have assigned different comport numbers but you will get similar results to those
shown below when you run the program.
Also notice the LEDs on the interface illuminate during the process.
If any other cables other than the USB cable are attached to the interface the test may fail.
Now turn OFF the DigiMaster Pro3 and install ONLY the CAT lead into the interface and into the
radios CAT system. (see image of rear panel of the interface and ensure you plug it into the correct
socket, an Icom CAT lead will have a marker and the Icom lead should be inserted so that end of the
lead with the marker fits into the interface – the MONO end of the lead fits the radio.
Refer to your manual to obtain the appropriate baudrate settings (and civ address if using an Icom).
Turn the DigiMaster Pro3 ON.
Start HRD.
If HRD was running before you switched the interface on then restart HRD. (HRD only looks for ports
when HRD first starts and if HRD was running when the interface was off then HRD will not find the
CAT port).
Enter your parameters into the HRD connection window, and in the comport field enter the number
[x] that was provided by the test program, (the port that says “CAT PORT+LOOPBACK).
Click “Connect”, if you have your parameters correct then HRD will start. If not then recheck your
parameters, if all fails (and because you have successfully tested the interface) you may need to try a
reset on your radio.
You should resolve any connection issue with HRD before going any further.
Plug in the DATA lead between the interface and the radio and start DM780.
You need to configure DM780 before you can use it.
AND, some radios need to be in a specific mode to operate DATA, and some leads need your radio to
be set in a certain way, the 857 for example needs to be set in “DIG” mode, the 706 needs it’s packet
baudrate to be set to 1200 baud (packet baudrate and NOT cat baudrate).
The YL02A cable for many
FTxxx radios (FT920 / FT1000MP / FT2000 ETC) need the radio to be configured in a certain way ,
