[DXLog.net - Support] Still problems with Winkey

[Jan-Eric Rehn]

Yes, I’ve tried that also.

The only way I can get WinKey to work in DXLog after restarting the computer is to first start Win-Test, open a contest, close Win-Test and then start DXLog.

But you say it still doesn't work at all?  Did you try RTS Always ON?

  Hi,

  Yes, I' m using exactly that configuration in Win-Test, but there are no "Handshake" options in the WinKey setup in DXLog. There I use DTR=Always ON and RTS=Always OFF. I ended with those options after talking to Chris via email a couple of weeks ago.

  From the WinkeyUSB manual:

  "Winkeyer2’s baud rate is fixed at 1200 baud. The communications setup
  should be set to eight bit data, 2 stop bits, and no parity."

  So there is no way it is going to work at 9600 baud.

  Jan, are you using 1200,N,8,2,DTR=Handshake, RTS=Handshake in the COM port
  setup for the Winkey in DXLog.net?  That's what Win-Test uses as the
  defaults.

  I guess DXLog.net needs a "Use Winkey defaults" button like Win-Test, to
  ease COM port setup, or all the settings should be ignored when
  device=Winkey.

  I didn't have any trouble getting the Winkey in a microHAM MK2R+ to work
  with DXLog.net, but of course that's not quite the same hardware as the
  WinKeyer USB.   The microHAM Router software probably does it's own Winkey
  initialization whenever it is launched.

    Hi,

    maybe the winkeyer works with 9k6 on the usb - that was one of my main
    challenges 1 year ago - only wintest could
    open the winkeyer usb ... A total reset of winkeyer usb did the job and it
    worked again in low speed and any
    program could use it. Wintest checked the availability of winkeyer based
    on possible connection speeds.
