[K3] and RUMped

Bill Frantz
I was playing around with RUMped -- a Macintosh contest logger
from DL2RUM -- and got it to send CW via the RS-232 command
channel to the K3. At least I could control the CW speed with
the K3 speed control so the K3 must have been generating the CW.

When I finished, I noticed that a macro I had defined on the M1
button was no longer there -- I just got "DVR not inst". I
decided that reloading the last saved configuration was in
order, but the K3 utility could not connect to the K3 and the P3
utility couldn't connect to the P3. I rebooted the Macintosh and
the utilities both started working. Restoring the saved
configuration recovered my macro, and everything is working again.

Has anyone else noticed similar problems with RUMped?

Cheers - Bill, AE6JV

Bill:

You also might post your question on the forum http://dl2rum.de/forum/  where the author might be able to answer your question.

Did you quit RUMLog before trying to connect with your K3 utility?  If you don't
then you are blocked from using the serial line to the K3 because RUMlog has
it.

Re: [K3] and RUMped

Bill Frantz
Yes, I learned the need to quit the logging programs the hard
way several months/years ago. But thanks for the good advice.

Thanks for the link John. I didn't know about that forum. I've
signed up, but I have a weekend of meetings that will take away
from my play-with-the-web time.

Cheers - Bill, AE6JV
