Rig Interface Help
The following is the essential information you'll need to get your rig interface connected, up and running with AC Log and my contesting software.
To get started with rig interface, you'll need the necessary interface hardware to connect your rig to your PC. Many modern rigs now connect directly to your PC with a simple USB cable. Check the CAT control section of your radio's manual for more details.
Here is a video that young Faith Hannah, AE4FH put together, demonstrating how to interface an Icom 7300 with my software:
To interface your rig with my software, once you have the necessary hardware connected between your radio and PC, configure the rig interface form as follows:
1. For Select Rig, select the rig you are interfacing. For most rigs, simply selecting the correct rig will also accurately set your baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits and polling string! You will find the successful settings that users have sent along for the vast majority of rigs we support below.
Icom Users Only! If you select Icom, you will also see text appear, asking you to change the rig ID (64 by default, which happens to be for the 756 Pro II) to the ID for your rig (the red lines in the graphic above). You should be able to find your rig ID in your manual's CAT control section. If there is a small h, such as 64h, ignore it and just enter the two digit number. I've also included all the successful settings I've received from other users below, which include the rig ID.
2. For Com Port, select the com port that you have your rig connected to. Even if only one port is listed, you still have to click on the port to select it.
3. For Connection Power, select the power option, if any, that your interface requires. Most use RTS, some use DTR and some do not require a power option at all.
Ready to Go!
If you have entered your settings correctly, you should be all set to enable rig interface. To give it a try...
4. Click Test to begin polling your rig. If both frequency and mode appear, you are all set! The software will follow your frequency, (and band provided you are in the limits of an Amateur band) and mode. In addition, when you click on a DX spot from the main form, your rig will tune right to that frequency!
Tips!
Once you have rig interface working, click the Save Setting button at the lower left, below the rig list, to save your settings. That way you can instantly load them from any of the other N3FJP Software programs!
If you wish to disable rig interface to log a QSO you made previously on another band, etc., you can either select None from the rig list, or from the main form, simply press Ctrl + Shift + R to temporarily disable rig interface.
When operating digital modes, under the Mode By options, select Mode by Frequency (to return the digital mode based on frequency). Also, if you will be clicking on DX Spots to change frequencies in the digital subband, check the check box that says "Don't send mode change with frequency".
In Case of Difficulty - Don't Panic!
If for some reason you don't get a response from your rig, there are a number of possible causes:
First, make sure that your rig is on and that your rig interface hardware is properly connected to BOTH your radio AND your PC.
Make sure that you have selected the correct Com Port.
Make sure you have selected the correct Connection Power for your interface.
In some cases, certain rigs use settings other than the defaults. Take a look at all the following successful settings sent in by other users below and correct your settings as necessary.
Successful Rig Settings!
The following are working, successful settings that other users were kind enough to send along. Note that the Com Port and power option will depend on your PC and interface, so those two settings may be different than the settings listed below.
If you try these settings for your rig without success, something rig or interface hardware specific is likely at play. Since I only have a Kenwood TS 440s an Icom 756 Pro II and Icom 7610 here, I will not be able to provide further assistance for any other rig or interface. If you are unable to get your rig going after trying the settings below, please feel free to search the message archives on the Users group or post a question there. It's likely that someone with a similar rig and interface will be able to help.
If you have settings for a rig not listed below, I would be very grateful if you would send them along, by clicking the Copy Data to Clipboard button while polling your rig and pasting the contents into an e-mail!

Note - Kenwood rigs have two options and most will work with either selection, though I recommend Kenwood2. The settings listed below are the ones users just happened to send in. The first setting, Kenwood, always reads the VFO specified (FA; reads VFO A and FB; reads VFO B). Kenwood2 always reads the active VFO. Kenwood2 also sometimes returns a mode when the first setting does not.

Please note that for the Kenwoood 590, users have reported it is necessary to change the rig's default baud rate as one user detailed here on the Users group. In short, he writes "I now set everything to 38.4 – the 2 menu settings that I didn’t know existed (61 and 62) as well as the device manager for the bridge and the software, and waalaa! It works like advertised!" That said, another 590 user reported that his 590 worked fine at 9600 baud. Also, you can enter any baud rate you like by clicking the Other button.
