Configuring the Flex Tuning Knob on the ANAN-100D
- Plug FlexControl into computer
- Install FlexControl driver
- Look under Device Manager ports to see what COM port is assigned to FlexControl USB Control Knob
- Create virtual port pair using VSPE or other software, using two unassigned ports in computer. (VSPE software must stay running to activate FlexControl knob)
- Open PowerSDR and assign one of the ports in the pair, under Setup - CAT and enable it. Personally I use, 4800/N/8/1 and PowerSDR ID
- Open DDUtil Setup
- Under Features, choose Legacy and specify the other port of the virtual pair.
- Under TKnob specify the port you saw in Device Manager for FlexControl and enable
Once it's all set up, you need to load software in this order:
- virtual serial port pair creation
- PowerSDR (with CAT port enabled)
- DDUtil
