Memory Manager for Linux?

Dick Roth
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Tried installing the Memory Manager using Wine on my Ubuntu 14.04
machine.  Got an icon on the desktop, but nothing else seems to work.
Any chance the program may be ported to Linux in the future?  I'm not a
coder so I have to rely on those with the skills.

Dick,
Do you mean the K3 utility made by Elecraft?
There is a native Linux version available on their website.

Peter,

No, the Memory Manager is different from the K3 (KX3) Utility.  The
Utility application is available in Windows, Mac, and Linux versions,
but Memory Manager currently is Windows only.

Time will tell if this Memory Manager will be ported to other platforms.

Dick is the programmer for both the K3 Utility and the Memory Manager -
as far as I know, he only does Windows.

Don has it right regarding the Utility.  I've been running it on various
versions of Linux since I built my K3 (#859).  The memory editor is
interesting to me.  I tried installing it under WINE, but all I got was
a desktop icon.  The program won't execute.  It wants native Windoze,
which I will not run.

Re: Memory Manager for Linux?

Matt Zilmer-2
 Hi Dick,

I have K3 Memory Editor 1.4.9.29 installed under wine on ubuntu linux
here.  This is ubuntu 12.04LTS running on a standard issue Dell PC
platform.

Running the Editor from a shell:  in ~/.wine/drive_c/Program
Files/Elecraft/Elecraft FrequencyMemoryEditor, with a command line of
./FrequencyMemoryEditor.exe.  The program executes and shows a GUI.

The K3 serial port is the Elecraft USB/Serial adapter for the K3. This
uses a DE9 connector at the K3 end.  On this linux, the device is
enumerated as /dev/ttyUSB0.  I've also made the device accessible
using a symbolic link (ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0 COM1), but no joy using
either device or link.

The problem here is a little different from yours, but it's still a
problem.  Even though the GUI loads and allows execution of the Read
All from Xcvr button, the program never receives a valid response (or
at least it's not interpreted that way).  I checked at the four baud
rates used, and the Editor is sending a ';' to determine basic
connectivity.  But it's not getting a good response, no matter which
K3 CONFIG:RS322 bps rate is set up.  Using the Elecraft USB/Serial
adapter, I can see the K3 responding via the LEDs inside the housing,
and confirmed a ';' going to the K3 using a null modem cable.

So anyway, that's me blowing off steam and it doesn't address the
problem you have.  Sorry for the diversion.

I'd suggest you try executing the Editor not from the desktop icon,
but from the command line as described above.  This is in case there
is some icon / shortcut parameter that doesn't allow the program to
start.  You can fix the icon Properties later.  If the program runs
(as above) maybe we can compare notes and get something going for you.
Unless there are a vast number of linux users, we might want to do
this off-list, if you're interested at all.

73,
matt

Re: Memory Manager for Linux?

Mike Markowski-2
In reply to this post by Dick Roth
A few years ago in C on linux I played around with determining the
undocumented memory map.  Pierfrancesco Caci IK5PVX joined in later and
we spent some time decoding binary returns after changing a single
setting.  We made good progress, but it's tedious and we instead
returned to on-air pursuits!  Turns out I don't use the memories too
often anyway.  I have other tiny C programs more useful to me.  It's
possible to reverse engineer, though I never went so far as to write
into memory for fear of doing something regrettable. :-)

I too have had no luck getting the KX3 Memory Editor to run on either
MacOSX or Linux (with a variety of emulators). I live in hope that the
KX3 Utility (which runs just fine for me on MacOSX) will have the memory
management functions added to it.

Have you seen or tried this memory manager for the K3/KX3 for Macintosh?

Thanks.

It seems to work well enough with my KX3 for me to fix up a few things.
