Re: [Elecraft] [Elecraft_K3] New Elecraft Product: K3/0-Mini Remote Front Panel

GM all:

The link in Wayne’s announcement yesterday to the new K3/0 Mini introduced some 
new Remote Software.  I’m interested in more information on the KPA500 Remote 
Software.

Since approx Nov 2012, I’ve been controlling a remote KPA500 with the KPAUtil 
running on a Dell notebook at the local / control site over the transparent 
serial channel using COM1 facility of the RRC-1258 units.  How does the 
configuration and use of the new KPA500 Remote software differ?

Re: [Elecraft] [Elecraft_K3] New Elecraft Product: K3/0-Mini Remote Front Panel

2014-03-20 Thread Doug Joyce
Further to my message attached - I decided to download the KPA500 Remote 
Software and see if it would work just using the same transparent COM1 channel 
I had been using for the KPAUtil approach - and it seems to work just fine.  It 
only took a few seconds to cycle thru a number of Com ports until it found Com1 
and connected to the remote KPA500.

The only minor glitch so far is that I tried out the Mini Mode display (which 
was ok) but when I switched back to the normal sized display, the “AMP ON” 
label at the bottom of the screen has been cut off.

This new software provides a much nicer display of the operating parameters and 
the bar graph presentation is much easier to read at a glance.  Looks like 
another very useful product from Elecraft.  Many Thanks
