USB to Serial Port adapters may be used to interface RS-232 connections to a USB port for use with the software. The ICOM OPC-478U was used successfully during software development for USB to CI-5 interfacing. The MFJ-5429 RS-232 to USB adapter cable was also used successfully in combination with the Optoelectronics CBDS cable. The quality of USB to Serial Port adapters varies considerably due to physical design, timing, and software driver issues. Be aware that many USB cable manufacturers have not updated their USB driver software for Windows Vista. Before deciding that a given adapter does not work be certain to check driver configuration parameters and download the latest driver updates. The com port chosen in the software must match the com port assigned by the adapter's driver software. Do not configure serial port parameters such as baud rate or parity as these are controlled by the software. Device Setup Requirements Scout On Scouts where there is a choice you must select a communications language of CI-5. The AR8000 setting is not compatible with the software. Normal mode must be set for operation with the Memories, Options and Display functions. Reaction tuning mode (active with either filter or capture mode) must be selected for operation with the Logging function. The software automatically seeks the address of Scouts which are not configured to the default address. Spectrum Scout Interface type must be set to remote control for operation with the Memories, Options, User Database 1, User Database 2, and Display functions. Interface type must be set to reaction tune for operation with the Logging function. Furthermore the receiver type must be set to CI5 for operation with the Logging function. The AR8000 and PCR1000 settings are not compatible with the software. When changing the interface type setting it is best to turn the device off and then back on for use Digital Scout Interface type must be set to CI-5 for operation with the Memories, Options and Display functions. Interface type must be set to reaction tune for operation with the Logging function. Furthermore the receiver type must be set to CI5 for operation with the Logging function. The AR8000 and PCR1000 settings are not compatible with the software. M1 The M1 does not require any specific settings for operation with the Memories, Options and Display functions. Since the M1 does not support reaction tuning the Logging function is not supported. CD100 The CD100 does not require any specific settings for operation with the Memories, Options and Display functions. Receiver type must be set to CI-5 for operation with the Logging function. The AR8000 setting is not compatible with the software. Xplorer All Xplorers support the Memories, Options and Logging functions. Some early model Xplorers have an interface parameter which must be set to CI-5 from configuration mode. These same early model Xplorers must also configure the baud rate parameter to 9600. Newer model Xplorers do not have these configuration parameters and will operate by default with the software. The software automatically seeks the address of early model Xplorers which are not configured to the default address. The Xplorer does not support the Display function. New style Xplorers send reaction tune commands out both the CI-5 and RS-232 connections so Live Log will work with either connection. X Sweeper
Interface type must be set to remote control for operation with the Memories, Options, and Display functions. Interface type must be set to reaction tune for operation with the LiveLog function. Furthermore the receiver type must be set to CI-5 for operation with the Live Log function. The AR8000 and PCR1000 settings are not compatible with the software. When changing the interface type setting it is best to turn the device off and then back on for use.
