Hi Again Hans,
I forgot to mention,
on Icom rigs you must disable "CI-V Transceive" mode in the rig menu.
That mode is on by default but it generates unsolicited CAT traffic
which causes data collisions and lost CAT conversations.

Hallo,
Hi Hans,
Installing program was easy, but all the rest worse.
Sorry you are having some issues with WSJT-X.
Using ICOM IC-7200 with connection to rig via USB ( Silicon Labs
CP210x USB to UART Bridge) like all other ICOM 7200 and 7600 users.
That has worked fine with all versions of WSJT/WSPR except for this
last version of WSJT-X.
'
Settings feels like a random happening sometimes. Options are there
sometimes and sometimes not.
I used:
CAT Control
Serial port COM8 (as usual)
19200 baud 8bits one stop bit no handshake (all as usual)
PTT method CAT Port Com8 (fixed via a roundabout way, not needed in
the older versions .... perhaps neither here ?)
WSJT-X now allows PTT through the CAT port using serial lines RTS or
DTR, or via another serial port using RTS or DTR or if your rig
supports it, via a CAT command. Your rig has the capability to SEND
with a CAT command and I recommend that method to you.
Set the PTT Method to CAT.
Transmit Audio Source: Rig set to data mode expecting info via USB.
Setting Rear/Data ( fixed in a very roundabout way as it was not
reachable and initially set to Front/MIc)
Some rigs use a different CAT command to take transmit audio from the
read data connection, the setting is there for those rigs and it is
only enabled for those rigs. Icom rigs select the Tx audio source
according to the rig modulation mode and via rig menu settings. I
believe the 7200 takes Tx audio from the rear data socket when
USB-DATA mode is selected. You need to change the rig setting
"Modulation input (Data on)" to U(USB) to take Tx audio from the USB
audio driver.
Mode USB (tried the other two settings with no luck)
None - doesn't change the mode of your rig. USB sets the mode to USB.
Data/Pkt sets the mode of your rig to Data. The latter is the best
choice so long as you have selected the correct Tx audio source in
your rig menu.
Split Op None
Test CAT was OK
Test PTT was OK
RX works fine
TX starts with resetting audio out to 0 that is no TX
In recent Windows you must set speaker volume sliders while the device
is active. I recommend setting the level for Tx from teh USB audio
driver from your rig menu item "USB Level".
TX sometimes go on for ever
If you can provide repeatable steps to demonstrate that issue please
report them here,
As I understand it you have changed code to control audio out setting
and rig control compared to all the other versions
Yes we use a new audio subsystem that works much better and is more
consistent across all the platforms we support. Also with rig control,
because advanced dual mode JT9+JT65 and soon to be released EME
Doppler tracking features need tight and accurate transceiver control,
much work has been done to improve the stability of CAT and PTT
functionality.
All the best Hans sm0vyi
