Local KPA1500 operation via KPA1500 remote
Locked
 
|
I’m having trouble configuring the KPA1500 remote software for local control of my KPA1500 using USB or Ethernet ( I want to locate the amp in the basement). I assume I am supposed to use the “Local Connect” tab, but when I hit the “connect” button, it says “unable to connect on Com………” and “KAT Remote not running.”
The com connection does work with the Utility (and the Utility isn’t running at the same time). Obviously I’m doing something wrong here, so would appreciate some help. I can use the KPA1500 Utility to do the same thing, but it is not as “elegant” Jim W2SM ______________________________________________________________ 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] |

Verify your baud rate and com port in the remote program (USB) matches the port and baud when using the utility program. Since the utility program works the cable connections are good.
I am using 230400 baud You can also select Local Connect/USB in the remote program and select find KPA1500. It will take a few minutes, depending on how many com ports the PC has.

HI Dave,
The key was using the “find KPA1500) on the remote tab. Working now.
