KX3 Companion, does it work?
Locked
 
|
Have anybody got the KX3 Companion App for Android to work?
http://kx3companion.com/ I downloaded the app and tryed it, but the app locks up i after TX. Also, the App has a 4 seconds delay after the last text is sent, and there doesn't seem to be possible to adjust this delay. Due to these flaws, the app is unusable for me. I have tryed the both with my Sony Xperia Z phone and my Samsung Tab 2 7" and with 4 different OTG cables, and the app locks up after TX on all devices. Have anybody else got the KX3 Companion app to work OK?

Martin,
I cannot make any comments about the app locking up after TX, but I can comment on the 4 second delay - I assume you are using data modes. When sending data modes that originate as ASCII text, the KX3 (and K3) have a 4 second "hang time" to allow for interruptions in typing. To terminate immediately, end your text string with the "|" character. This character will be interpreted by the KX3 as an immediate stop. 73, Don W3FPR On 6/26/2014 6:50 AM, Martin Storli - LA8OKA wrote: > Have anybody got the KX3 Companion App for Android to work? > http://kx3companion.com/ > I downloaded the app and tryed it, but the app locks up i after TX. > > Also, the App has a 4 seconds delay after the last text is sent, and there doesn't seem to be possible to adjust this delay. > > Due to these flaws, the app is unusable for me. > > I have tryed the both with my Sony Xperia Z phone and my Samsung Tab 2 7" and with 4 different OTG cables, and the app locks up after TX on all devices. > > Have anybody else got the KX3 Companion app to work OK? > ______________________________________________________________ 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] |

Do not think the lock up is due to the app, but rather to interference on the connection between the KX3 and the tablet/ phone. An opto isolator should eliminate this. I had a similar problem with both HC and other Amateur software.

Martin and All,
Yes, I think KX3 Companion does work. Shortly after it was first released, I downloaded it onto my Motorola Droid Maxx. Once I obtained the "OTG" cable (not easy to find locally), I hooked it up to my KX3, and it seemed to work very well. I haven't really had a chance to use the program very much, but I also have connected a bluetooth keyboard to simplify the typing process. I think there may be an update to the KX3 Companion program which I have not yet downloaded. Possibly there is a glitch in that which may be giving you a problem??? I would think the program would work well on your Samsung. Anyway, I can tell you that it should work, so keep trying. Someone else may have better info to pass on to you.

The lock up happens even with 0 watt out to a dummy load, so I don't think that interference is an issue here.

I downloaded the latest full version from Google Play.
On my Sony Xperia Z the android version i 4.4.2. I don't have the Samsung Galaxy Tab2 where I am right now. I'm not using any external PA, and I don't think interference is an issue since the behaviour is the same even when connected to a dummy load and the KX3 set to 0 watt output. I'm using the SEND button in the App. I can't see any XMIT button in the App. I hope the problems can be solved, because it will be so great for portable operation!

Hi Martin, are you using the latest version? Free or Full version? Which version of Android are you running? Are you using the external PA? About sending... are you using the SEND or XMIT mode? In any case... later today I'll release an updated version dedicated to Field Day with improvements on the logging side.
