[WT-support] TS-590 COM settings

[Jorge K]

Hi Harry:
Using a real RS232 I use 19200  N 1  DTR Handshake RTS always on  and Don´t poll 
unchecked. Put in menu 61 same baudrate. After changing baudrate turn transceiver 
off and on.
Using firmware 1.04.

Hi Harry,

Are you using the Kenwood (HF) defaults, with DTR and RTS set to "Always OFF"?  
Are you also using a USB-to-Serial adapter instead of a "real" serial port? Some of 
these USB-to-Serial adapters may require DTR to be set to "Always ON". Try that.

Also in Win-Test, if the "Don't poll" checkbox is checked, UNCHECK it.

If neither of these things seems to help, you may have to try a different USB-to-
Serial adapter, preferably one based on the FTDI chipset rather than one based on 
the Prolific chipset. It is very hard to get USB-to-Serial adapters based on the 
Prolific chipset to work properly.

If you are using a microHAM virtual serial port, we'll need more details about how it 
is configured.

Another possibility is to try OmniRig for TS-590 support, rather than the support 
built-in to Win-Test.

PA2A's comment about firmware 1.04 is also somewhat troubling.

    Hi everyone,
    
    Trying to get Win-test working with TS-590 but not quite successful.
    
    Using 4800 8-N-2 at the Win-test side and 4800 at the radio side.
    
    The 590 follows Win-test commands (changing bands and modes, following
    cluster spots) but Win-test doesn't show any changes of the 590's
    frequency change.
    
    Any ideas ?
