[WT-support] IC-7610 support not yet working right in Development Version

[Achim, DL1DAW]

Hi Bob

are there any news about the configuration of IC-7610 and Win-Test?. I tried your proposal with the change of the CI-V adress and

select IC-7851 as radio in  Win-test – but no luck! Obviously there must be other parameters to be set right as well.

Is there any configuration available as a best practice solution? I would highly appreciate to get such a solution.

Laurent added IC-7610 support to verison 4.28.0-dev of Win-Test, but it's not reading the frequency of the radio properly, and that probably won't be fixed until after ARRL DX CW.  You can type a frequency and press [Enter], and VFO A will go there OK, but even with CI-V Transceive ON, Win-Test will not follow the movement of the VFO.

 

Workaround:  use the IC-7610 SET -> Connectors -> CI-V menu to change the CI-V Address of the IC-7610 to 8Eh (and leave CI-V Transceive ON), then tell Win-Test 4.27 or 4.28.0-dev that the radio type is IC-7851 instead of IC-7610, and it will start to work normally.

 

Most of my Icom LUA scripts will not work however, as many still need to be customized for the IC-7610 command set, which is quite different than the 7851.  I'll be working on this soon, but probably after ARRL DX CW.

 

Another option is to use OmniRig support.  Let me know if you need the corrected IC-7610.ini file for OmniRig.
