[Elecraft] W2 Software
Can anybody confirm that Elecraft W2 software runs on a Windows 11 PC. Mine is fine on Win10 PC but on Win11 PC the setup screen wont open to choose COM Port.

[Elecraft] W2 Software
Hi, I have been trying ot find the software for the W2 computer control. I found the app to update the firmware but cannot find the control software. Does anyone know where I can find it?

[Elecraft] W2 software??
Hi, I run a remote setup. I use the KAT500 and KPA500 remote software to see and control what the remote hardware is doing. I have a W2 watt meter and was wondering if there is any equivalent remote software for the W2.

[Elecraft] W2 Software
Hi All I have server W2's and I use them all at my remote base. The interface works wonderfully, but for me it takes up too much screen real estate. Has anyone either written a smaller one or knows of one that would be about the quarter of the size? I know I should program one myself, but programming isn't one of my best skills. :) 73 all and HNY Mike va3mw __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
[Elecraft] W2 Software
To those who write software (not me.. .I just use it). Is there any chance that we could have a 'compact' version of the W2 software display just like we have for the KPA500? Just a thought.

Re: [Elecraft] W2 Software
Hi John I have used Com ports on Win 11 without issue. If you have one, you will want to check in device manager and see if you see the port. 73, Mike va3mw On Wed, Oct 19, 2022 at 5:28 PM John Chappell G3XRJ wrote: > Can anybody confirm that Elecraft W2 software runs on a Windows 11 PC. > Mine is fine on Win10 PC but on Win11 PC the setup screen wont open to > choose COM Port. > > Thanks 73 > John G3XRJ > __ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > Message delivered to va...@portcredit.net > __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
Re: [Elecraft] W2 Software
thanks Michael. Its the setup screen in W2 that wont open. All other programs run without COM port issue. I've tried 'compatibility' mode etc to no avail. 73 John G3XRJ On 19/10/2022 23:15, Michael Walker wrote: Hi John I have used Com ports on Win 11 without issue.

Tim, It is on the new Elecraft website. Go to www.elecraft.com and click on SUPPORT Then on the page that opens, click on Firmware and Software On that page, click on Test Equipment Line Firmware and Software Lastly click on W2 Firmware and Utility. The Utility link is located near the bottom of that page. 73, Don W3FPR On 10/26/2018 3:58 PM, k...@kq8m.com wrote: Hi, I have been trying ot find the software for the W2 computer control.

Re: [Elecraft] W2 Software
Hello Tim, You are right. The W2 Utility is used mainly for updating the firmware. I believe you are looking for the W2 Interface software. The new web site doesn't appear to have a link on the software page, but by typing "W2" in the Search box I was able to find it. Scroll about half way down the page to find the W2 Interface software. https://elecraft.com/pages/w2-wattmeter-swr-bridge-software Best 73, David, W4SMT On Friday, October 26, 2018, 4:58:31 PM EDT, wrote: Thanks to all who answered so quickly.

Re: [Elecraft] W2 Software
Thank you, David. That is exactly what I am looking for. I am also thinking of writing a little utility to display the data. On that page is a link that is supposed to go to a mod for the W2 but it goes to the serial interface commands file. I think Elecraft is having trouble with their new design. Oh well, they will get it fixed. 73 Tim, KQ8M k...@kq8m.com -Original Message- From: David Fleming [mailto:df...@yahoo.com] Sent: Saturday, October 27, 2018 17:01 To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net; k...@kq8m.com Subject: Re: [Elecraft] W2 Software Hello Tim, You are right.

Re: [Elecraft] W2 Software
Now I'm confused. The web site says that the W2 Current Production Firmware is V1.00, 4-12-2010. When I look at my remote station using the W2 Interface Ver 1.12.1.18 W4SMT software, the bottom of the screen says "Connected to W2 ver 1.07" Why the difference?
