Dennis, I think I also had to wire a special serial cable to make it all work properly. It seemed like the wiring diagram was provided in the help section of DX4WIN.

Dennis, I used to have a Steppir and it worked very well with DX4WIN. You have to go into the Control tab of preferences in DX4WIN and enable the Steppir functions. Then you have to go into the menu system of the SDA100 and setup the controller so that it will track the radio. It has been a while, but I think you had to select Kenwood as the radio type. Once you have the controller setup correctly, then you have to enable Auto Track on the front panel of the controller. It should then retune as the radio changes frequency every 25 khz. 73, Dave, N4QS -----Original Message----- From: DX4WIN [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Dan Violette Sent: Saturday, May 21, 2016 11:06 AM To: 'RadioDen45'; 'Alan Zack'; 'Paul van der Eijk' Cc: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN and SteppIR? I have DX4WIN at home and SteppIR at work club so could not answer direct with that combo. As long as DX4WN is following your radio OK then you "Y" the SDA-100 from the same serial line and it listens in and sets itself too.

Hello all you out there in radio land, I'm trying to setup V8.05 of DX4WIN to control my 3ele Steppir beam, I have followed the HELP files but NO JOY. Is any one out there controlling their SteppIR with DX4WIN? I'm using the SDA-100 controller... Thanks in advance for any help.
