This looks like an appropriate time to announce that I have an I2C device in development to do exactly what many users are looking for. It is controlled by DDUtil and has the following features:
- Two (2) 8-bit ports wired to the VHF+ buttons in PowerSDR that are controlled by two (2) matrices in DDUtil's ExtCtrl tab. These matrices can be output either to standard parallel ports or to FlexWire ports. http://k5fr.com/ddutilwiki/index.php?title=Setup#ExtCtrl_Tab - One (1) 8-bit port wired to DDUtil's Device0 HF BCD output. This output can be directed to either a parallel port or to a FlexWire port. http://k5fr.com/ddutilwiki/index.php?title=Setup#Device_Tab - One (1) 8-bit port reserved for future expansion. I have it working in breadboard form, but there is still a ways to go. I'll keep the group posted as to the progress of this project. 73, Steve K5FR -----Original Message----- From: flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz] On Behalf Of Hank Wolfla Sent: Friday, February 20, 2009 12:09 PM To: flexradio@flex-radio.biz Subject: [Flexradio] Flex Wire - Amplifier Band Switching Does anyone know how to take the data from the Flex Wire output of the Flex 5000 and decode it so that I could drive relays to control the band switching on my AL-600 amplifier. This was very easy with the SDR 1000, but seems pretty complex on the 5000. I am not a digital design engineer, so am pretty much starting at ground zero. Thanks for any help someone could provide. 73, Hank K9LZJ Hank Wolfla 1308 S.
