[WT-support] communication between WTRotators and Win-Test

[Jorge Diez - CX6VM]

I have a problem with wtRotators.

 

In Controllers/Add I select prosistel, add port COM4 and fill with the
antennas info

 

When I press OK button the notebook reset, after a big blue display with
some text appears for less that 1 second so I couldn´t read it.

 

Now my computer is bad. Always I want to open Win Test or ARSVCOM with the
RS232-USB cable connected appears this blue windows and notebook reset.

Check you correctly configured the controller in wtRotators on these
machines, and that bands are matching between WtRotators and the current
QSO in Win-Test.


Or more specifically, start wtRotators and select Options | Win-Test Network
Properties as shown
<http://docs.win-test.com/wiki/Rotators#Configuring_wtRotators_.28single_PC.
2C_no_network.29> here.

For a single computer environment, if your "Wintest Communication Network
Properties" window doesn't look EXACTLY like the one shown in the Wiki, it's
not going to work.

You also have to add a rotator for every appropriate band as shown in the
Wiki.

On the other hand, if you are trying to share a rotator between all three
computers in a local network (as in a multi-op) you cannot use the loopback
address because packets destined for that address never leave the PC (they
don't go out over the network).   So instead, you should be using the
default broadcast address as described
<http://docs.win-test.com/wiki/Rotators#Configuring_wtRotators_.28multi-op_e
nvironment.29> here, on every machine (in Win-Test, wtDxTelnet, and
wtRotators).

There is more info. in the
<http://docs.win-test.com/wiki/FAQ:Rotator_Control_and_wtRotators> FAQ.
