Hope this doesn't confuse you.
You need a pair of VSPE ports for PSDR to talk to DDUT
You need a pair of VSPE ports for DDUT to talk to Commander
You need a pair of VSPE Ports for WinWarbler to have PTT control of PSDR
So here is where it gets interesting.
Most logging and digital software was originally written for hardwire
serial ports that only have numbers maybe up to 8 maybe 10.
But DDUT and PSDR can use numbers up to 60 or more.
So When you create your VSPE ports, make the pairs a high number (30-50)
and a low number (1-16) (approximately)
In PSDR you need a Cat control Port (I use 17<>27), 17 is the port
number of PSDR Cat control, and 27 is DDUT Radio Cat port.
Now you need a pair of VSPE port to go from DDUT to Commander.
So I use (19<>5) DDUT RCP1 is set to 19, and Commander's Primary Port #
is 5.
At this point, you should now be able to communicate PSDR vfo/mode info
via DDUT to Commander.
Commander should now display your VFO, mode data.
Now to configure WinWarbler. for CW and Digital modes
CW first, depending on what form of cw keying you choose, you must go to
the CW tab and either select an actual outboard keyer such as the WinKey
or use WW's internal keyer
If WinKey, assign the port that WinKey uses to the Winkey panel of Keying.
If you choose to use WW's internal keying, Select the Xcvr Crt SW
Test that out to see if you can send CW
Now digital
There are two parts to digital, PSK and RTTY
PSK doesn't require a port per se as it's really an audio mode, using
the correct sideband is the key.
RTTY does require a com port because in my setup, I'm using WW's
implementation of MMTTY which in my setup requires the MMTTY setup TX
tab to have com 8 as my PTT port
In my VSPE setup, I have ports <22<>8>
Port 22 in PSDR Cat control tab where PTT Control panel is enabled for
port Com22 and RTS enabled.
You won't ever have enough virtual ports, as you add other devices etc.
So set up pairs for equipement which generally only accept low com port
number
and Software which generally will take high numbers.
for instance
serial port 2 through 4
and then start your virtual ports like
vspe
5<>19
6<>20
7<>21
8<>22
etc etc
Hope this helps and gives you some ideas
If I made any typos, sorry
I'm also sending this to Steve and the Flex list so if someone has
better ideas or suggestions they can advise.
