Phil, Eric, I uninstalled the MixW Virtual ports and installed N8VB build 226. I have got SDR to work with Digipan using bit bang but not DX4Win with CAT. I set it up to work with com 4 and com 5 and the SDR emulating the TS2000. DX4Win tells me that there is no port. I am using Version 1.4.0, Asus 3.2 Ghz. D44. I noticed on btracy.com that he had a version of 1.4.0 with CAT commands implemented for download. Do I need to use that instead of the regular version on the download page? DX4Win has a utility that allows me to check interoperability between programs. Using MixW Virtual ports it worked fine, using build 226 it does not recognize the SDR at all. 73, Dale AA5XE Philip Covington wrote: Dale, Eric, The MixW driver did not support timeouts, events, or allow you to use asynchronous I/O. To make it work Bill had to continuously poll the serial port. This slowed down the serial coms. The MixW driver also would not allow PowerSDR to work with Ham Radio Deluxe very well (if at all) and many other third party programs. The vCOM driver tries to closely emulate a real hardware serial port and allows very high speed communication between PowerSDR and third party programs. I wrote a new serial communications class for PowerSDR that replaced the old serial port polling code that supports both hardware and virtual com ports. It is event driven which reduces CPU load from polling.You can download the vCOM driver build 226 from http://www.philcovington.com/SDR.html There is no need to keep the MixW driver on your system since vCOM works fine with MixW. 73 de Phil N8VB On 7/11/05, Eric <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:Dale, The MixW com port setting was removed in order to support the latest version of Phil's vCOM based on what I understand. It is also my understanding that Phil's vCOM supports all of the software that the mixW driver did and thensome. If I am incorrect, please let me know and we will either add support for that driver back in, or get it working with the vCOM driver / PowerSDR.

What happened to MixW Virtual Port setting? Is this just an oversight or is it lost forever? What are we supposed to use now? I had DX4Win logging program working fine using the MixW virtual port. 73, Dale AA5XE _______________________________________________ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz _______________________________________________ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz |
