K3 - USB
Locked
 
|
Hooked up my backup K3 so I could add a mod on the other K3. I can't connect
to USB anymore with the backup K3. Verified that USB is selected in Config > RS232 > USB. Swapped the KIO3B Digital I/O board between the two rigs. I can't transfer the problem. The only thing plugged into both rigs is the Powerpole and USB cable. I am using the same USB cable to go between both rigs. In Win 10 >Device Manager > Universal serial bus controller, I see added "Generic USB Hub" when I plug in the USB cable. What could I be missing or check? Tnx for any feedback N2TK, Tony ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |

Tried swapping the KIO3B Main Board. Something on the board broke. Guess I
need to order another board.

Hmmm. On the one rig USB and RS232 works fine. On the other rig RS232 works
but not USB.

Tony,
The computer must also enumerate a COM port that is associated with the adapter in the K3(S). If it goes not, go to the FTDI website and download the drivers. 73, Don W3FPR On 5/24/2018 6:49 PM, N2TK, Tony wrote: > Hooked up my backup K3 so I could add a mod on the other K3.

Watch Control Panel --> Device Mangler --> Ports while you plug in the
USB cable to the PC. You should see a new COM port come up. That's the port you use to talk to the radio. It's faintly possible you are missing or have an old driver, but Windows almost always installs the correct driver transparently when you plug in the cable. Unplugging the cable will cause that port to disappear. 73, Fred ["Skip"] K6DGW Sparks NV DM09dn Washoe County On 5/24/2018 3:49 PM, N2TK, Tony wrote: > Hooked up my backup K3 so I could add a mod on the other K3.

Hi Fred,
That is exactly what happens when I plug in or remove the USB cable. Narrowed down the problem to the KIO3B Main Board. Ordered a replacement board. 73, N2TK, Tony -----Original Message----- From: [hidden email] [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of Fred Jensen Sent: Friday, May 25, 2018 3:55 PM To: [hidden email] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 - USB Watch Control Panel --> Device Mangler --> Ports while you plug in the USB cable to the PC.
