Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500 Client/Server Software
Not sure what you want to do here, but when running KPA1500 Remote in its client/server configuration you can make control changes and monitor the amp via either the client or the server instance, running on different computers, and they follow each other. I've seen no discrepancies. In my shack, the server instance is connected to the amp via USB and connects to the client instance via Ethernet across the LAN or WAN. For me, the simultaneous operation characteristic is just a curiosity - if I'm in the shack, I use either the physical control panel or the USB-connected instance of KPA1500 Remote. If I'm operating remotely, I use the client instance running on my local computer. So I only see and play with the dual access capability when I'm in the shack (the "radio site") and experimenting with the configuration. 73, /Rick N6XI -- Rick Tavan Truckee, CA On Mon, Aug 6, 2018 at 1:06 PM, Paul Baldock wrote: > At 03:59 PM 8/6/2018, you wrote: > >> The KPA1500 Remote s/w, which should be on our website later this week, >> supports both a local operation via direct connection via USB or ethernet >> to the amp. >> > > Will I be able to control the KPA1500 using 2 different programs > simultaneously, one talking via Ethernet and one via USB, without conflict? > > - Paul KW7Y > > > __ > 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 rta...@gmail.com > __ 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] KPA1500 Client/Server Software
The KPA1500 Remote s/w, which should be on our website later this week, supports both a local operation via direct connection via USB or ethernet to the amp. This s/w also supports client/server operation when there is a computer running the K3Remote s/w at each end. (with the same user interface.) Stay tuned! :-) 73, Eric /elecraft.com/ On 6/27/2018 4:53 AM, Paul Christensen wrote: Is there any news from Elecraft or a third-party developer concerning KPA1500 client/server software? Some of us, and likely many more ops, need the ability to control the amp from a remote desktop without the need of desktop replication software like TeamViewer and VNC. N4CC and I share his KPA1500 at a remote and while the KPA1500 setup utility gets the job done, it's a poor user experience. What's needed is a highly graphical client/server application similar to the type designed by Bernd Koch, DF3CB for the Alpha 87A amplifier. That package has client and server components, and the GUI is a high-resolution graphic of the amplifier complete with switches, LEDs, panel graphics, even the logo. Clicking on the GUI is just like finger presses on the actual amp. It would be great to utilize the KPA1500's Ethernet port but even client/server connectivity via USB is fine for now -- just to get something going other than the KPA1500 setup utility. I'm willing to help finance the development to get something moving along now and not some TBD date in the future.

Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500 Client/Server Software
We are already in test with both client server sw (Similar to KPA500 and KAT500 remote) and also client direct to the amp via local ethernet or usb. Stay tuned! We will announce here when it is ready. 73, Eric elecraft.com _..._ > On Jun 27, 2018, at 4:53 AM, Paul Christensen wrote: > > Is there any news from Elecraft or a third-party developer concerning > KPA1500 client/server software?
