FIRST TIME HOOKUP OF N1MM+ TO K3 VIS MICROHAM USB INTERFACE III

I am trying to get N1MM+ to talk to my K3 but will not do it.

I am setup for 4800 B, Data 8 bits, Parity N, stop bits 1. DTR and DTS have
been tried with both Always ON and Always OFF but neither one works.

I have tried the Radio reset command from N1MM+ with no luck.

Can anyone help?

Try 38400 instead of 4800.

A little more info. The K3 and K3S default to 38400 bps on the serial port. This can be changed in the configuration menu, and you should verify the setting in the menu system.
If it is still set to the default, set your PC for 38400 bps (and the MicroHam device as well, then give it a try. N1MM works very well with the K3, so it is a matter of getting the configuration correct to make it work.

Yes, I believe the baud rate is the problem.

Should be 38400.

You got good advice on baud rate. Also, it's wise always to confirm proper
operation with K3 Utility first. If it doesn't connect, chances are N1MM
won't, either. Utility marches through speeds until it finds one that
works. MM requires a specific speed setting.

Re: FIRST TIME HOOKUP OF N1MM+ TO K3 VIS MICROHAM USB INTERFACE III

Have you followed the instructions in the microHAM USB Interface III
Users Manual to set the jumpers for the correct serial signal levels
(RS-232 in this case)?

After that, look at the configuration example for USB III and N1MM
Logger+ which is available in Router (Help | Download Documents) or
online in the USB III area at www.microHAM-USA.com/support.html.
