Found it Dale, thanks.

/Erik
If you're talking about the sidetone frequency, you can set it right 
from the main PowerSDR screen. It's just to the right of the Speed 
slider.

Re: [Flexradio] Start up sequence

[Erik Jakobsen]

Ok Keith.

Tnx for your input here. Will look for the program you mention.

/Erik

Hi Erik

Normally

OS ->  PSDR ->  DDUtil ->  RCP programs like HRD or MIXW or DigiPan

You should allow ten seconds between each.  This can be automated with a
program like BatchRun.  Searchable on the net as btrun430.exe.

But it's NOT on 10Mhz, bu on 9996.

Re: [Flexradio] frequency

Fine on that Tim and as guide use this or ? :

http://kc.flexradio.com/KnowledgebaseArticle50175.aspx?Keywords=wwv

/Erik
Assuming the carrier is at 9996, change the frequency in the 
calibration form and the VFO-A to 9996 and run the calibration test.


There is nothing special about WWV other than the carrier is at a 
particular frequency.  And carrier at a known frequency can be used.

Then change the calibration frequency value to 9996000. Two things 
matter and are required for the calibration to work:


 1. It must be a steady carrier;
 2. It must be at least as accurate as the radio, which implies an
accuracy better than about 1/2 Hz.

Re: [Flexradio] frequency

[Erik Jakobsen]

Hi Ignacio

Ok with RWM and how it does the trick. I found the schedule here:

http://www.irkutsk.com/radio/tis.htm

/Erik
A problem with the Russian standard frequency stations like RWM is 
that they usually don't transmit a continuous carrier but at some 
short periods.   Most of the time they key the carrier on and off with 
the 1 pps or 10 pps pulses, quite difficult to use then for fine 
receiver calibrations so you must wait until the carrier is steady 
on.  I used to have a schedule but Is lost it some time ago.


Ignacio, EB4APL

Re: [Flexradio] frequency

[Erik Jakobsen]

Ok Tim. I'll keep fingers away, as there's now issue on my site with it :-)

/Erik
Once you have run the frequency calibration, you can use these 
techniques to fine tune the frequency accuracy, but you will find that 
the frequency calibration routine will get you very close.  This KB 
article was written when the frequency calibration routine was not as 
accurate as it is now.

 It doesn't matter. The calibration routine changes the radio 
mode to suit its own purposes.


   2. Setup>general>calibration
   3. Select WWV frequency
   4. press START
   5. go look at the clock offset in setup>general>hardware
   config>DDS-Expert

Tnx Brian.

The most stable in this part of the world is the Russian qrg 
standard.

But it's NOT on 10Mhz, bu on 9996.

How to ?

[Flexradio] Click_Tune

[Erik Jakobsen]

Hi.

I'm a bit int doubt how to use click_tune.

A screenshot of how I see it is shown here:

http://www.urballen.dk/click_tune.jpg

Please tell me where to fire the yellow, to get it placed ok.

As can be viewed, the TuneStep is set to 50Hz.

Re: [Flexradio] Click_Tune

[Erik Jakobsen]

Thanks for reply and information Tim.

I had that idea about the 50Hz for Tune Step.

On RTTY -as I show on the dump- would you click in the 'valley' between 
the two mark and space signals ?.


I ask, because I think I have tested all possiblities without getting 
the right method.


/Erik
Click Tune is dependent on the Tune Step and mode.  Depending how 
close you click tune to the signal of interest, it will tune to the 
strongest signal withing the frequency range of the Tune Step setting.


If you are tying to Click Tune SSB signals that are ~3K wide and the 
Tune Step is only 50 Hz, you will probably not get Click Tune to 
properly tune to the SSB signal's suppressed carrier frequency.  SSB 
signals need a Tune Step value of closer to 500 Hz to 1 KHz.  I place 
the yellow cross-hairs near the suppressed carrier part of the SSB 
signal where the signal strength is the strongest to Click Tune SSB 
signals.

Might be the memory.xml  file is bad...Go to Windows Run ,  
type   %AppData%and click Run..   This should take you to your

folder there is a memory.xml and a master.xml  file.Rename the

Re: [Flexradio] Worst case scenario

[Erik Jakobsen]

Neal, you did that, cause you also is a human being as we all are :-)

Sorry for the grin

/Erik


Why is it we always go for the worst outcome first?

I have been building and testing a computer today and everything was going
smoothly until it just turned off. Would not power up no matter what!

So, I unplug everything from the motherboard and bring out the PSU tester,
which shows a bad power supply. So, I plug in the bench PSU and try the
computer, no luck. So I put the power supply tester on the bench power
supply and it shows dead.

This is too much stuff dead but my first suspicion is that the PSU tester
isn't good so I throw it away and look for my spare one (not found).

Then I look down and see the power cord is not fully plugged in. AHA!

So I unplug the  bench PSU and get the PSU tester out of the trash. Plug
the original PSU back in, hit the power button and nothing happens! So I
plug the PSU tester into the original PSU and still no reading. Well, maybe
the original PSU really did die!

So I am looking in inventory for a replacement PSU and see I have none
available (the bench PSU is very underpowered for anything but testing).
But, I figured, at least confirm the motherboard isn't dead so I plug in
the bench PSU and hit the power button, nothing.

Usually at this stage its a sign I need to walk away because frustration
will start to blind me. So I push back my chair to leave and then see the
power cord for the power outlet on my test bench has worked its way out of
the power socket.

Why didn't I check that at the beginning and save myself an hour of
frustration and picking my PSU tester out of trash twice???

At least its up and working normally again!

Re: [Flexradio] Heil Headset and FLEX-5000

[Erik Jakobsen]

What type of ATOM ?

73s
Erik OZ4KK

Thanks to everyone who helped.  I got time to go over to N3AO last night
and we got his headset working.

My Heil Proset set is Tango Uniform.  I think there is a break in the cord
as neither element works.  This induced aggro which led to an improper
setting in the aggro environment which prevented the perfectly good headset
from showing it was working.

The 5000 is working perfectly in all modes on my Intel ATOM computer.
Since N3AO, N3KN, N1SMM, and I will be doing contesting and some serious
algorithm testing,  I am moving the new AMD II-X4 over there to use.

When my refurbished AMD II-X4 arrived from Tigerdirect it was DOA.

When I found out they had depleted their stock, I looked at Walmart and
found this

http://www.walmart.com/ip/Acer-1TB-PT.SGM02.002/16608489

It was the same price,  brand new,  with better graphics 

I will report after the contest this weekend.

N4HY



On Wed, Dec 7, 2011 at 6:17 AM, Carter Craigiewrote:


My Heil headset has two plugs on the end of its cable:

One is a black 1/4" stereo phono plug for the headphones, and I see where
to
plug that into the PHONES jack on the front of the radio, so no problem
there.

The second is a gray 1/8" mono plug for the mike, and I DON'T see where to
plug that in.

There is no jack of that size on the front of the '5000, and I need help
knowing where and how to plug it into the back of the '5000, as there is no
appropriately sized jack on the back (bumpy!) side.



Also, I don't see where or how to plug in my 1/4" mono foot switch.



Any help please for these two problems?

73,

Carter N3AO

Re: [Flexradio] Can not get new SDR and 1500 working

[Erik Jakobsen]

I would use Revo Uninstaller to do uninstall, because it also removes 
leftovers.


73s Erik OZ4KK

Help, I recently received my new Flex 1500 and I can not get the SDR software 
out of Demo mode?
I had previously installed SDR 2.3.5 in demo mode prior to receiving my 1500.  
I tried using that version first, it was downloaded from Flex site, it would 
not come out of demo.  I uninstalled it, installed from the new CD, same 
problem.  I did that couple times, restarted computer etc.  The software tells 
me to change from demo mode in the setup form, but I looked everywhere, no such 
from available in the program.  Did uninstall via Windows 7, and also via the 
SDR CD, only thing I get is demo mode and no way to change it.  My 1500 drivers 
installed automatically when I connected it.  Followed instructions in start 
up.  Spent lots of time on this.
Please help with suggestions.  Thank you 73

Re: [Flexradio] PR-781 with Flex-3000

[Erik Jakobsen]

Yes it is.

Flex has this:

ACC-ADM817 RJ45/8-pin male foster

Erik OZ4KK



Is it possible to use a Heil PR-781 with a Flex-3000?  If so, can anyone
provide details (pin out) for the required mike cable?   I have a friend who
purchased this combination from Radio World along with a cable adaptor which
is not doing the trick.

Thanks and 73, Sheldon VE1GPY

Re: [Flexradio] Alternatives to Skype for remote audio?

[Erik Jakobsen]

Place what you write at the flexradiowiki :-)

/Erik OZ4KK

Hi Rich,
I have gotten "TeamViewer  7" VoIP audio working after many try's and the
audio is really quite good on HF. You have to turn it on at both ends which
is NO problem because I use TeamViewer for the remote access control anyway
and I just have to click the audio connect button on the Radio side as well
as the (Local) remote side.

I need to do a write up on it so I don't forget how to do it and when I get
some time of course, I can pass it around if anyone else is interested.

The Audio for me is MUCH better then Skype which I have used for several
years and doesn't have all the extra crap.

If you turn down the Refresh Rates under the Setup, Display tab it will help
with bandwidth.

I have used Skype in the past. However, Skype is designed for high
quality telephone conversations and it tries to eliminate background
noise. A certain amount of noise is inherent in our usage and any
attempt to eliminate it, instead of improving it, causes pumping. Thus,
I use IPSound by SM5VXC which just plays it like it is. Thus, I find
that IPSound works much better than Skype for our purposes.

Re: [Flexradio] PowerSDR 2.4.4 Flex-1500 and 60m

[Erik Jakobsen]

Had the same here. A database reset cured it.

73s
Erik OZ4KK



(Corrected header)

  


Hello,

  


I think my Flex-1500 is behaving strange on 60m.

I have European Flex-1500, region 1, and it is opened for TX at 60m, 5.250 -
5.450MHz. RX and TX works OK.

But PowerSDR is saying only "Out of band" in this segment, but is saying
"60m general receive" outside this segment.

This must be wrong! (I have not imported any old databases.)

  


I also will complain about the bandstack registers on 60m band.

When repeated click 60m band button I only get 2 channels, 5.380 and 5.371.5
(or so).

(On version 2.3.5 there was Channel 1,4,5, and general)

  


I would like it to behave like any other band, get the frequency you like,
not preset channels.

Can this be changed?

  


73's

LB5VA, Stig

Seems as if “Out of Band” is displayed regardless of frequency entered on both 
VFO A and VFO B.  Is there a band data file that is not being read?  Other than 
the display, everything seems to behave as normal.

Any assistance greatly appreciated.

[Flexradio] 32 or 64 bit ?

[Erik Jakobsen]

Hi.

I got a new computer here for my F5KA.

It's a 64 bit Asus P5Q with 4G of RAM.

I'm now i doubt which Windows will be the best for it.

Would it be a 32 or 64 Bit ?.

There's no as much software for 64 as ther is for 64 bit.

For an example the XP 32 or the XP 64 ?.

Should it be Vists 32 or 64 bit.

Or shall I wait for the Windows 7 ?.

I want to get it installed before the Windows 7 arrives :-)

Re: [Flexradio] 32 or 64 bit ?

[Erik Jakobsen]

Thanks to all for your inputs.

Tim!, do you mean to use a dual boot system ?.

/Erik

The PowerSDR software and the FLEX Firewire driver are 100% compatible with either 
the 64 or 32-bit operating systems.  Some third party software is not fully 
compatible with 64-bit operating systems or Vista (32 & 64-bit) in general.

64-bit XP was  basically a Microsoft experiment for trying out 64-bit on 
Windows.  Continued support of it is minimal at best.

Since you have only 4 GB of RAM, a 64-bit OS will not buy you any performance 
benefit (PowerSDR is a 32-bit application).

The FLEX Firewire driver, while it works on Win7 RC versions, it is not 
certified for that operating system, but I assume that a driver update after it 
is released will be.

If the hard drive is large enough, partition it in half, load 32-bit XP on the 
first partition and start using it.  When Win7 x64 is released, load it on the 
other half of the hard drive.  Oh yeah, add a few more GB of RAM when you load 
the 64-bit OS.  It will probably need it, as Microsoft operating systems love 
to consume RAM.

[Flexradio] New hardware ?.

[Erik Jakobsen]

I run Flex 5000A here.

Today I started it up, and then this message came up, due to a reason I 
don't know. What could it be ?.

Is that the FireWire driver ?

Sorry I forgot to send it to the group

/Erik

Hi Dudley.

The culprit was, that I by a fault had a wrong FireWire driver 
installed. After I got that fixed, I got the Audio and the 2 MIDIs 
installed.

Thanks for the input here :-)
73,
Erik

Erik,

Something happened that has caused the FireWire driver to need to be 
re-installed,  either moved the radio to a different FW port,  
replaced the FW card,  or updated the FW driver.   But in any event,  
under XP you will see three (3)  Found New HW wizards come up on the 
driver install,  Audio, and (2) MIDIs..   Vista does not give you any 
of these indications.


73,
Dudley

[Flexradio] Flex 5000 A and Fldigi

[Erik Jakobsen]

Hi.

I try to set up Fldigi on my F5KA radio, but I have issues.
Here is the latest part from the fldigi-alpha mailinglist, where I have 
asked for help.


--- device #9

Name= Virtual Cable 2
Host API= Windows DirectSound
Max inputs = 8, Max outputs = 0
Default low input latency   =0.000
Default low output latency  =0.000
Default high input latency  =0.000
Default high output latency =0.000
Default sample rate = 0.00
Supported standard sample rates
 for half-duplex 16 bit 8 channel input =
 8000.00,  9600.00, 11025.00, 12000.00,
16000.00, 22050.00, 24000.00, 32000.00,
44100.00, 48000.00, 88200.00, 96000.00,
192000.00



This is Virtual Audio Cable masquerading as a DirectSound device.  This
is the input device that gives you the error.



> --- device #7
> Name= Virtual Cable 2
> Host API= MME
> Max inputs = 0, Max outputs = 2
> Default low input latency   =0.200
> Default low output latency  =0.200
> Default high input latency  =0.400
> Default high output latency =0.400
> Default sample rate = 44100.00
> Supported standard sample rates
>  for half-duplex 16 bit 2 channel output =
>  8000.00,  9600.00, 11025.00, 12000.00,
> 16000.00, 22050.00, 24000.00, 32000.00,
> 44100.00, 48000.00, 88200.00, 96000.00,
> 192000.00
  


This is the same device accessed via the MME API.


Please try again with the MME devices for both capture and playback,
i.e., not the "Virtual Cable 2" devices that are under the "Windows
DirectSound devices" submenus.

If this works we'll have to assume that VAC doesn't work well under
DirectSound, or that there's a bug in PortAudio's DirectSound backend.

I think what Brian achieves by forcing the sample rate is to avoid the
problem where fldigi tries to set a sample rate of 0.0 (the default rate
reported by PortAudio for VAC/DS).  The toggle to "File I/O" and back
must be a way to reinitialise PortAudio.  If you save the settings and
restart fldigi you shouldn't have to do this.

I'm not sure why PortAudio reports 0.0 for the VAC DSound device, or how
fldigi should handle this.


Does anyone here on this list have any solution(s) to the issue(s) ?

Hi flexers.

Here there is more response to my issuses.
What say ?

Because of it's masquerading ?.



Well, VAC pretends to be an audio device because this is what it
does... I don't know why it's giving you trouble, only that your
previous email contains an fldigi log that shows an error while trying
to access the "Virtual Cable 2" DirectSound input device.

  
Do you mean still using the VAC, or make a change in the set up in the 
SDR itself, here ?



  

http://www.urbakken.dk/MME.jpg
and
http://www.urbakken.dk/MME2.jpg



  

and try running this or ?



  

http://www.urbakken.dk/windowsdirectsound.jpg



  

I'm not quite sure what to try.



PowerSDR uses PortAudio, like fldigi, (though I believe they have their
own version forked from PortAudio mainline many months ago).

Concerning VAC, the PowerSDR manual says that "with most digital
software MME will work well".  So I suggest that you go with MME both in
PowerSDR and fldigi.

In fldigi, the PortAudio capture and playback menus contain devices
names that appear twice.  The device that appears in the main capture or
playback menu is the MME device, and the corresponding DirectSound
device in in a submenu.


BTW, PowerSDR supports PortAudio backends that fldigi does not.  We
cannot build ASIO support into the win32 fldigi binary because the ASIO
license is totally incompatible with the GPL.  The WDM-KS backend I
could never get to work and in any case it requires a huge SDK download
from MS (unless one downloads the headers from somewhere else, not
good).

I mention this because I don't know if VAC is capable of speaking to its
client programs via different backends, e.g. MME to PowerSDR and
DirectSound to fldigi.  To be safe use the same backend (Driver) in both.

  

If this works we'll have to assume that VAC doesn't work well under
DirectSound, or that there's a bug in PortAudio's DirectSound backend.


  

We'll see it when I have it explained what to do :-)


I think what Brian achieves by forcing the sample rate is to avoid the
problem where fldigi tries to set a sample rate of 0.0 (the default rate

must be a way to reinitialise PortAudio.  If you save the settings and
restart fldigi you shouldn't have to do this.


  

I understand.


I'm not sure why PortAudio reports 0.0 for the VAC DSound device, or how
fldigi should handle this.



  

Maybe it's totally a fail to try to get Fldigi to run with Flex radios ?.



I don't see why fldigi would not work with Flex radios, if VAC does what
it says on the tin :-)  Also, Brian has got it working.


  




What are you flexers saying to that, and what can I do ?.

Re: [Flexradio] Portaudio ?.

[Erik Jakobsen]

Hi Tim.

Thanks for the information. I have it running now. I followed an article 
I found on a Google search made by Brian WB6RQN.
I deleted the not necessary com ports in com0com, and then I'm sure, 
that I have changed around on the virtual audio

in the Fldigi audio part.

But I need to try clicking on ferrites to the Fire Wire cable, as I have 
RFI in there on 14Mhz. There's nothing og 80m.

I need to start PSDR over again after I tried to TX :-(

I'm sure I have seen a setup info for Mixw, that you are the author for.

Can you tell me where I can find it ? :-)

Thanks again for always arriving here to help me. I appreciate it very much.

/Erik


It worked for me this weekend and now it doesn't.  I am not sure what 
is going on.  MixW works fine.

and DirectSound to fldigi. To be safe use the same backend (Driver) 
in both.


  
If this works we'll have to assume that VAC doesn't work well 
under DirectSound, or that there's a bug in PortAudio's 
DirectSound backend.



  

We'll see it when I have it explained what to do :-)

I think what Brian achieves by forcing the sample rate is to 
avoid the problem where fldigi tries to set a sample rate of 0.0 
(the default rate reported by PortAudio for VAC/DS). The toggle 
to "File I/O" and back must be a way to reinitialise PortAudio. 
If you save the settings and restart fldigi you shouldn't have to 
do this.



  

I understand.

I'm not sure why PortAudio reports 0.0 for the VAC DSound device, 
or how fldigi should handle this.




  
Maybe it's totally a fail to try to get Fldigi to run with Flex 
radios ?.

I don't see why fldigi

Eric,

I have had problems with portaudio in the past but that problem seems
to have gone away. I was always able to get fldigi and portaudio to
finally behave through fiddling with the settings of fldigi and VAC,
not always in a fashion that made sense to me. Later versions of
fldigi (I am running the alpha-test version 3.13AC) do not seem to
have the same problems.

Regardless, I will be happy to walk you through the procedure I came
up with to get fldigi working with PowerSDR and VAC. You might also
see if you can get a copy of the alpha version of fldigi to see if
that fixes the problem as well.

Not sure which time zone you are in. I am GMT-7 hours. I think you are
GMT or perhaps GMT+1. Perhaps we can work out a time when we can go
over the settings in real time. Evening my time works best for me but
that would make it early in the morning for you. We can use Skype or
Echolink to talk.


  

Brian,

Thanks for the reply. Ok for your problems with the portaudio. I can 
tell you, that it worked ok
yesterday after having followed the set up info of yours, that I found 
by Googling. But today it

has not at all worked.
I can tell you, that the version of Fldigi I use is the same one as your 
running -3.13AC-.


Will be happy to receive your help.

I'm GMT +1 here in Denmark ... 


I send you a mail direct

There I think, that Dudley's idea with installing the official PSDR

/Erik-OZ4KK
No.  CW Skimmer works best with PowerSDR when "raw" or direct I/Q data is fed into it.  MixW requires post processed audio, so the VAC settings in PowerSDR are different.

Re: [Flexradio] [SPAM] Flex 3000 - host error after applying full power output

[Erik Jakobsen]

Hi.

Also here there is a good article on RF grounding:

http://www.para.org.ph/membersarticles/DU1ANV/Grounding%20Systems.htm

73s-Erik-OZ4KK

>From what you have described, you have an RF problem that is faulting the 
Firewire interface causing the unanticipated host error.  The problem is most 
likely RF on the coax shield (common mode currents) due to the unbalanced antenna 
(G5RV) you are using.  The SWR will show to be low and the impedance presented to 
the radio something very close to 50 ohms, but the RF level still high on the 
shield of the coax.  This RF has to go to ground (low potential) and it is doing 
so through the Firewire connection to the computer and then probably to the AC 
safety ground.  Eliminate the RF on the Firewire cable and your problems will be 
solved.  There are many people running 1500 watts with this radio in high RF 
environments so the problem is not inherent to the FLEX-3000.

Since the SDR is a radio system consisting of hardware and a computer, you have 
to look at the computer as the other half of the radio.  This is not the case 
with a traditional radio.  You have to make sure both the radio and the 
computer are not susceptible to stray RF

You can validate the RF issue by connecting the radio to a dummy load and 
transmit at full power.  If the radio works fine, then the antenna is 
definitely the problem and that is where you need to start troubleshooting.  I 
do not suspect the Firewire card in the computer as being the problem.

There are several of ways to fix common mode RF currents.   You can attack the root 
cause, eliminating the common mode currents on the coax before it gets to the radio 
& computer by:

Checking for bad coax, especially the connectors for breaks or poor shield 
connections.

Use a common mode choke to shunt the RF to ground from the coax before it enters the shack.  


Ground the shield of the coax before it enters the shack.

Ground the radio to the computer using a low impedance ground strap
http://kc.flex-radio.com/KnowledgebaseArticle50370.aspx

Or you can try to mitigate the symptoms by trying to keep the RF from making it 
all the way to the computer by using mix31 ferrite beads on both ends of the 
Firewire cable and using a better shielded Firewire cable.

Subject: [SPAM] [Flexradio] Flex 3000 - host error after applying full power 
output


 I do have a rather floating question regarding the 3000 and general SWR issues and an error I have been getting "unanticipated host error". 
This error forces me to restart computer, and in one instance pretty much to go back and reinstall all drivers and SDR from page one onward of the quick guide.
 
I did some back reading on this error and it seems to mostly stem from some Firewire error.
 


The computer is a full sized HP tower, but I am using the internal 1394 port 
now, as I can at this time not access a full sized Firewire card this 
computer does not have PCIExpress slots and the is the size of card BestBuy has 
on shelf stock.


I am curious. I have been able to load my G5RV OK on the antenna tuner (Z 
match, which has worked OK for all bands on all previous rigs... ) ON 80 M and 
this evening on 40m it seems...

It appears that even with a low SWR match on the tuner for 20m so far...once I 
get the load OK on test, that given any increase in power beyond around a 10 
watt tuning level I end up getting the unanticipated host error and PowerSDR 
crashes and computer needs a reboot.
 
OK.. but I have seen nothing in the back archives re. that error and tuning up, SWR, etc. Only re. the Firewire host.
 


Or am I dealing with some inherent problem with the 3000 to work into a tuner 
load that while is seen as approx. 1:1 is not some sort of perfect 50 ohm load?
 
Reality is.. I am on a city sized lot all I can run with for 80 and 40  and 30 m too I suspect is a VEE variant with ladder line and tuner and a balun... I will have  a tri band Yagi beam back up later in the fall after I have the damaged antenna replaced, but I do need to run the wire antenna for 80, 40 and 30 pretty much.. as well as for the other two WARC bands.
 

 
I just want to get some idea before I go ahead and move my wife's computer to my shack (as it accomodates my over the air HiDef WinTV personal video recording to hard drive card...) and then have to buy a new smaller one for her that does not need to have all the card space I need for TV PVR and FireWire.
 
I really DO like the 3000 so far.. and I am already plotting to somehow acquire a 5000A if I can find one :) for its better specs and I already MISS having the bandscope function when using my Elecraft K3.

Just really concerned about what antenna situation, RF SWR 

Re: [Flexradio] [FlexEdge] Flex re-install files

[Erik Jakobsen]

There is an issue installing the Flex Loader.
The Help directory is not in C:\Program Files\FlexLoader, but is in 
C:\Program Files\FlexLoader\FlexLoader Libs

Here the Help directory has to be moved one step back.

73s-Erik-OZ4KK

Jordan,

The Flex Loader is for keeping a good local repository of the 
different firmware versions,  and to help assist in loading the 
firmwares,  a firmware management tool..
All the current drivers and PowerSDR versions are located on the Flex 
Home page,  on the left hand side..


http://www.flex-radio.com

But you should install the Flex Radio driver (FireWire driver for the 
radio),  connect the radio,  power up the radio,  verify that the Flex 
Radio Driver is communicating with the radio,  then install and run 
PowerSDR..   Try to install the Driver,  "Run as Administrator"   this 
helps if UAC (User Access Control)  is left on in Vista or Win7..

Dudley

Re: [Flexradio] PowerSDR 1.18.3 is not available for download

[Erik Jakobsen]

Works ok here with firmware 1.3.0.0. NOT with 1.3.0.8.
Same issue as with 1.3.0.8 and PowerSDR 1.18.2
The issue is, that there's no signals at all.

I'm running with Windows XP PRO UK.

73s-Erik-OZ4KK

QST to all Flexers,

PowerSDR v1.18.3 is now available for download from the FlexRadio web 
site. (http://support.flex-radio.com/Downloads.aspx?id=294)


This is a maintenance release of PowerSDR and contains no new 
features; just fixes and improvements to existing features.


Note: For FLEX-5000 and FLEX-3000 users, the FLEX Firewire driver 
v3.4.2.6300 is recommended for this release.


Note: For FLEX-5000 users, firmware 1.3.0.8 is recommended for this 
release.


Note: For FLEX-3000 users, firmware 1.2.5.6 is recommended for this 
release.


1. Fixed image settings not being restored properly following a load 
of the EEPROM (primarily after switching radios in production).


2. Fixed PanaFall cursor time showing 15-30 sec instead of 0-15ish.

3. Added color controls for RX1/RX2/TX Band button color indicators.

4. Fixed FLEX-5000 RX2 Ant N/C selection to work properly with 
firmware v1.3.0.8.


5. Write checksum issues to log file for troubleshooting analysis.

6. Fixed bug when defining new XVTR band and manually tuning to that 
band, then clicking a band button would cause an exception.


7. Added an additional preamp run state for the FLEX-3000. Pre1 is for 
15m and above. Pre2 is for 10 & 6m. The preamp is not that effective 
below 15 meters and should not be utilized unless the band is very quiet.

Firmware: 1.3.0.8
PowerSDR 1.18.3

According to "Software Version and Dependency Matrix" on the FlexRadio

73s-Erik-OZ4KK

You have installed firmware in your radio that is not compatible with your 
software. In addition, you have loaded a Firewire driver that will not allow 
you to load a 1.x.x.x version of firmware.

You have loaded experimental device drivers and firmware for your radio. If you 
are not participating in testing experimental software, then you should only be 
using the versions of the software that are listed on the FlexRadio Systems 
home page as the current software.

This information is discussed primarily on the FlexEdge reflector where topics pertain to 
discussions of "leading edge" experimental, alpha, and beta [SVN] 
software/firmware and hardware/system configurations.

To fix your problem, un-install the v3.5.0.7171 driver and load the 3.4.2.6300

Then install the version of firmware that PowerSDR is requesting.

Re: [Flexradio] Audio problem

[Erik Jakobsen]

Mark.

I suggest you take a look at the Tweakhound website, where there are
good tweaks.
I did that when Neal pointed the site out for me, and it has helped.

Re: [Flexradio] FLDigi and Rig control

[Erik Jakobsen]

Your friend is Google. Brian Lloyd wrote this.
(copy pasted from the mailarchive!)

Hope ok Brian ?.



8. Install the Flex 5000 driver.
9. Install PowerSDR.
10. Make sure these are both working properly.
11. Install VAC 4.09 live version -- DO NOT INSTALL THE DEMO
VERSION!! Configure it for two channels.
12. Install com0com. Configure it for two virtual RS232 cables:
COM6<>COM16 and COM7<>COM17. Enable buffer overrun on both.
13. Configure PowerSDR Audio>VAC. Use Driver: MME, Input: Virtual
Cable 2, Output: Virtual Cable 1.
14. Configure PowerSDR CAT Control for port COM6. Click to enable CAT.
Set the ID as: PowerSDR.
13. Install ddutil. Configure it to talk to the rig on COM16.
Configure it to talk to the rigctl program on COM17.
14. Download fldigi and the PowerSDR.xml rig control description file
from the fldigi home page.
15. Install fldigi. Copy the PowerSDR.xml file to the rigs folder
inside the fldigi.files folder. (The fldigi.files folder is at the top
level for the user under "Documents and Settings".)
16. Configure fldigi soundcard configuration to use portaudio with
Capture: Virtual Cable 1, and Playback: Virtual Cable 2.
17. Select the "Rig" tab of the fldigi configuration pane. Select the
"RigCAT" tab.
* Use RigCAT selected
* Rig description file: PowerSDR.xml
* Device: COM7
* Retries 3
* Retry interval 30
* command interval 80
* CAT command for PTT selected
* click "initialize", "save", and "close".

You are up and running.

Yes, besides fldigi there are other digital mode programs. But since I
run on MacOS, Windows, and Linux, I prefer fldigi. If you are only
going to run on Windows then I suggest you also consider the Ham Radio
Deluxe/DM780 combo. If you have followed the above instructions you
can pretty much substitute HRD for fldigi. I find the logging in HRD
and fldigi adequate for my uses. (I operate digital modes almost
exculsively.) For occasional voice operation I use the logging in HRD
as it supports this mode properly whereas the logging in fldigi does
not.

Good luck!

73 de Brian, WB6RQN/J79BPL

P.S. I will try out my F5K on my MacBook Pro using the IEEE-1394b port
with an adaptor cable and report back here.

[Flexradio] BSOD

[Erik Jakobsen]

I run at the moment 1.18.3 on my Flex 5000 A.
OS is Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.

I have had some BSOD's within the last few weeks.

What causes BSOD's ?, and how can I avoid them?.

Re: [Flexradio] BSOD

[Erik Jakobsen]

Yes I was, but I'm not quite sure how to see how I can gain from the
BlueScreenViewer information.
I think the pink colored files are the ones, that BlueScreenViewer think
is doing BSOD, but I'm not sure
about that.

I have 2 screenshots on my homepage showing 2 results with the
BlueScreenViewer.

Re: [Flexradio] BSOD

Hi Neal.

No I have not. There is an HP Optical mouse connected, and has been
since the install.
Oh yes, I do have a Logitech Keyboard.

Both the mouse and keyboard connects to computers here via a KVM switch.
But also the keyboard has been connected since the W7 install.

I know even that, there could be issues.

The webcam here connects via my server to the Internet.

And I do have the LevelOne USB wireless adapter for the LAN here

Re: [Flexradio] BSOD

No problem Neal. We always learn from it. I'll uninstall and start the
wired lan again.
But first I will live without LAN/WAN access, as there is issues you
know running the built in LAN CARD.

Maybe I should try to plug another LAN card in the computer, but that I
can do another time.

Oh now I read you suggest to just stop the USB wifi stick. I will

It was in one of the bsod's Peter.

I checked the driver, and it was not the legacy one.
Now it is, and according to Driver Detective it should be ok the driver.
I will search the reflector after the word 'legacy', as I think I have
seen that
it isn't necessary to use a legacy driver anylonger.

Thanks for your reply.

There is a 'Pro' purchase version also.

no connection just saw it and I installed it (after virus scan)
It's easier to read the now 'roomier' taskbar elements.

I have a NVIDIA GeForec 7300 LE graphical card.

It has a VGA connector and a DVI connector.

The VGA connects to a LCD VGA monitor and the DVI connects via an DVD to 
VGA adapter to another LCD VGA monitor.


The puzzling setting the 2 monitors up is made via the NVIDIA control panel.

And it's fairly simple to do, and very nice to have working.

And the prize. The only that costs me is the grapich card as it also had 
the DVD=>VGA adapter with it in the box.

[Flexradio] F5000A & Atom 330

[Erik Jakobsen]

Hi.

I have a computer that is based on one of the small IPX computers. Here 
it has an Intel Atom 330.


I think I once read, that there is problems using it with a Flexradio, 
but I cannot remember what

problem there should be.

Could someone refresh my old memory ?, tnx!

Re: [Flexradio] F5000A & Atom 330

[Erik Jakobsen]

Ok Tim.

Do you mean the Deep Impact ?

/Erik

The Atom 330 is under powered for a FLEX-x000.  Enabling DSP features such as 
NR or NB in PowerSDR will cause it to have degraded audio performance. I have 
not tried it with the latest Firewire drivers, but I suspect that it will not 
be feasible for use as a CPU platform until there is software that supports 
multirate DSP.

Yes, I built a box using a Zotac board that supported core2duo (lga775)
processors and had an pcie-1x port. Make sure the board doesn't have a
built-in Intel Atom, it'll be underpowered. Also, make sure it has the 1x
port or a PCI port, otherwise you won't be able to add firewire to it as
most dont have it built in.

I don't know whether or not you can get a board that supports AMD
processors, check newegg. Just make sure it has a pci/pcie slot for a
firewire card.

Re: [Flexradio] [Fwd: Re: Distorted Audio(Windows 7)]

[Erik Jakobsen]

That can be viewed be opening Device Manager=>View=>Resources by 
connection=>Interrupt Request (IRQ)


73s-Erik-OZ4KK


Ron,

I had this same problem when using the FireWire on the motherboard of my new
Gateway Quad Core PC.  I installed a PCI Express FireWire card with a TI
chipset and now everything is perfect.  I can run in Normal Mode the
smallest audio buffer size at 192kHz sampling.  The problem is completely
gone. Before getting away from the motherboard FireWire it was very
difficult to get it to run without audio distortion.  My bet is that the
motherboard FireWire chip was sharing an interrupt with other devices.

software why does it sound good when I first start and then just listening
it starts to distort.  I would really like to use Windows 7 but at this
point if I want to use the Flex I have to use XP.

some further tests of your PSDR settings, etc. to make sure it is a
Windows
related problem.  What firmware are you using in the Flex 3000?  My system
is an Intel i7 920 2.8 GHz with 4 GB RAM.  I chose a Gigabyte motherboard
as
it has the built in TI firewire chipset that is demonstrated to be
compatible and trouble free with the Flex.  I hope with a few settings
changes you can get your radio working to your satisfaction.

I spoke too soon and jinxed myself.  After I sent this message I fired up
the Flex 3000 and after about 5 minutes the distortion was there.  My Flex
3000 is unusable with Windows 7.

I wanted to update my problem with distorted audio with Windows 7.  I
decided to do a fresh reload of Windows 7 and now there is no distortion.
  So it looks like it was something that I loaded in Win 7 that caused the
distortion like a program or a driver and not a Win 7 problem.  Now I have
to worry about what I installed that may have effected the Flex 3000.  I
guess every time I install something I will have to check the Flex for
distortion and roll it back.

Hi Everyone,

I just received my new Flex 3000.  Right now I'm just using it to
receive while I'm getting familiar with it.  While I am listening to it,
after about 5 minutes, the audio sounds distorted.  I can clear up the
distortion by clicking stop and start again and it sounds good for a while.

I'm using a Dell Optiplex 330, dual core 2.13 GHz Intel processor with 2
gig of ram.  The operating system is Windows 7 32 bit Home Premium.  The
firewire card is Via PCI card.


   

The firewire driver is v3.5.0.7171 PowerSDR version is 1.18.5.
  Rolling back Windows 7 to XP solved the distorted audio problem.

[Flexradio] Audio problem

I have problem with the audio on my Flex 5000 A

PSDR 1.18.5
Firewire 3.5.0.7171

Re: [Flexradio] Finally, root cause of high latency

[Erik Jakobsen]

I have this chipset:

Intel P45 (Eaglelake-P) + ICH10R

Is it in the same URL ?. I run Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, but it seems 
not to be found there ?.


Erik OZ4KK


That driver is usually contained in the chipset driver package.  You can try to 
get an update from Intel.  I have also seen a BIOS update resolve issues like 
this.

You will probably need to ID your chipset 
http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/inf/sb/CS-009266.htm and then find the 
driver update.

Subject: [Flexradio] Finally, root cause of high latency

My Vista Ultimate, dual core, 2.4 GHz with 4 GB of RAM should be screaming.
But it has never done so.



Well, tonight I decided to try everything until I found the culprit.  And I DID 
find the root cause.



The Intel 82801 PCI Bridge - 244E.  When I disable it latency drops down to
15 microseconds.  When I enable it, latency is consistently 1000 microseconds.



Unfortunately, I also discovered that disabling this device also disables the 
IEEE 1394 Firewire card.



So I have met the enemy, and it is me.



I would greatly appreciate any suggestions on how I might resolve this prolem.

With the Legacy driver it runs ok and I have no BSOD's at all.

Re: [Flexradio] Revisited - firewire

[Erik Jakobsen]

Indeed it's strange :-)

I will try the trick you have done.
Which hotfix is it ?

Erik


The strangest thing is I have never had the BSOD using the normally selected 
driver by Windows. I do not know why but I haven't. One thing I do, however, is 
apply a Microsoft hotfix and go into regedit and set my SidSpeed to 2 for the 
firewire card. Don't know if this is why I don't have problems but there might 
be something to it.

Re: [Flexradio] Revisited - firewire

I use Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. It is the released version.
It can run here, but I get very often BSOD's .

Erik

Erik

Which OS are you running ?

Windows 7 RC, Beta and Vista required the legacy driver, Win 7 released
version does not.

Every firewire card I have used Win 7 (release version) has picked a driver
from it's store. It has worked with LSI and TI chipset boards , PCI, PCIe
and onboard cards.

Erik,

As a potential Flex 5000 owner and current W7 64-bit user I must ask - have
you checked that it's the FireWire driver that's causing the BSOD?

Were I to buy a Flex 5000 then I would want to write my own code to drive
it, getting BSODs while developing code is not what I would want.

The problem seems to be with the ohci1395.sys driver for Win7 x64 and
some Firewire host bus controllers/motherboard combinations.  If it
was a systemic problem with the FLEX driver, there would be many more
instances of it being reported.

Erik,

As a potential Flex 5000 owner and current W7 64-bit user I must ask
- have
you checked that it's the FireWire driver that's causing the BSOD?

Were I to buy a Flex 5000 then I would want to write my own code to
drive
it, getting BSODs while developing code is not what I would want.

Re: [Flexradio] Revisited - firewire

[Erik Jakobsen]

Welcome, and yes it looks bad.
Unfortunately I'm not a clever programmer, and cannot write a device driver.
So untill a new one is ready, I have to run the legacy one, or try other 
Firewire boards.


I too doubt, that W8 will solve the issue.

Thanks - looks bad :(

The very last thing I want to do is write a device driver. Come Windows 8
32-bits will in all probability not be an option.
