I am having an issue with the KPA500 software.
It works fine on one PC, but when you use it in client/server mode, which I do a lot, It randomly fails on the the client PC. I can see what it is doing, but no joy for any commands. It has worked at times. it is also not a timeout issue. The network is both devices on the same subnet plugged into the same switch with 3ft cables. Other applications like PSTRotatorAZ work fine when doing something similar. The ports and ip addresses are correct. One other ham friend of mine reports the same intermittent failure. Is anyone else using this mode and having similar issues? Mike va3mw ps. I would include screen shots, but the small image size restriction makes is hard to do. ______________________________________________________________ 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] |

I figured out the problem and the solution. If you connect to the KPA500 software from another client and you do NOT provide the password, you are connect in a 'listen only' mode where you only see what is going on with the amplifier. Once you have provided the password, then you have full control of the amplifier from another computer. The is clearly a PEBCAC issue. Jack, thanks for getting back to me. I thought you would like to know.
