Has anyone successfully interface the Flex 6600M to HamLogger? I cannot get it to work.
Both my computer and my Flex are plugged to my Comcast Router. The two slices in the Flex were assigned Com29 and Com30. N1MM Plus works fine with these Com Ports (.i.e 29 and 30) and allows me to configure the CAT interface just fine.
However, when I close N1MM and start Logger32, I get a "Invalid Port number: Comm Port 30" (or 29) when I try to configure the radio in Logger32.
I am using Win7 and Logger32 Version 3.50.356.
Any suggestions? I have been using Logger32 for many years with ICOM and Yaesu radios. I would hate to have to switch at this point.

Does Logger32 support COM port with large number? I use it with COM-14 no problem, but who knows, maybe it does not work beyond 16...

Change COM ports numbers to lower ones. Device manager in Windows is the way. Mike

Just tried com-30, no luck. The logger, when I click [Apply] button, comes back with "Invalid port number" error. As I said - port 14 works no problem.

Are you using a virtual port manager maybe? I use the USB Device
router from Micrham and I can go as far as port 30 creating them.
I think windows only let you to configure 1 extra port up to com 256

That's right I am using the same one. It will go not higher then
port 30.
If you want a higher port numer you should tell windows and change
the standar com port in the device manager into whatever you want
(as high as 256)
hope this helps

Should work fine. I am using the 6400M here with no problems.
Are your com ports defined in SmartSDR CAT as 29 and 30?
You can define the radio in Logger32 as an Kenwood radio or
PowerSDR. I have not used N1MM Plus so not sure about the 2 ports
you have defined. Just email me directly if you have any
questions. k4jaf AT k4jaf.com

For a number of reasons, I decided to upgrade my radio computer from Windows 7 (with over 200 Security Updates!) to a fresh copy of Windows 10. Performance much better. Also, the two slices from my 6600M now show up as Com 9 and Com 10. Logger32 is now happy and both slices now show up as Radio 1 and Radio 2 with rig control working fine.

May I ask about rig control. I have looked thru the 6600m manual and I dont see any real CIV type commands for this rig. At least not like Icom or Kenwood although the commands I can use for a TS-2000 are limited. I am looking close at one of the M model flex rigs.

The CAT type commands for the 6000 series is limited but do have the basic
most needed commands. You can download the command info from the Flex
Radio website but not sure exactly where it is and have to leave the house in a
few minutes, can look and answer you later on.
The commands to change frequency, mode etc are included when you choose
your radio in Logger32.

a number of reasons, I decided to upgrade my radio computer from Windows 7
(with over 200 Security Updates!) to a fresh copy of Windows 10.
Performance much better. Also, the two slices from my 6600M now show up
as Com 9 and Com 10. Logger32 is now happy and both slices now show up as
Radio 1 and Radio 2 with rig control working fine.

Should work fine. I am using the 6400M here with no
problems. Are your com ports defined in SmartSDR CAT as 29 and
30?
You can define the radio in Logger32 as an Kenwood radio or
PowerSDR. I have not used N1MM Plus so not sure about the 2
ports you have defined. Just email me directly if you have any
questions. k4jaf AT k4jaf.com

Subject: [hamlogger] Flex 6600M Interface
?
Has
anyone successfully interface the Flex 6600M to HamLogger? I cannot
get it to work.
Both
my computer and my Flex are plugged to my Comcast Router. The two
slices in the Flex were assigned Com29 and Com30. N1MM Plus works fine
with these Com Ports (.i.e 29 and 30) and allows me to configure the CAT
interface just fine.
However,
when I close N1MM and start Logger32, I get a "Invalid Port number: Comm
Port 30" (or 29) when I try to configure the radio in
Logger32.
I
am using Win7 and Logger32 Version 3.50.356.
Any
suggestions? I have been using Logger32 for many years with ICOM and
Yaesu radios. I would hate to have to switch at this
point.

The CAT type commands for the 6000 series is limited but do have the basic most needed commands. You can download the command info from the Flex Radio website but not sure exactly where it is and have to leave the house in a few minutes, can look and answer you later on. The commands to change frequency, mode etc are included when you choose your radio in Logger32. Jim K4JAF From: Dave Colliau

At least not like Icom or Kenwood although the commands I can use for a TS-2000 are limited. I am looking close at one of the M model flex rigs

As Jim said, the basic functions needed by rig control in Logger 32 work fine.
When you get your Flex, you are asked to download three pieces of software from the Flex Radio site. The first is SmartSDR which is used to operate the radio ( instead of the front panel), DAX which manages the audio between the radio and the computer, and CAT which manages rig control between the radio and the computer. You do need to do some simple configuration in CAT (and leave the application running) before configuring the radio stuff in Logger32.
