To steer your Yaesu radio via the Radio 2 COM port you will \nuse a USB-to-Serial converter + a Yaesu CAT cable, e.g. the CT-62. This \ncable comes with a DB-9 connector on one side that connects to the \nconverter and a mini DIN plug on the other side, that connects to the \nradio. So, you don't have direct access to the lines Ground and DTR. \nWhat you could do: Solder a short cable with a female DB-9 connector on \none side and a male one on the other side. Connect the female side to \nthe USB-to-Serial converter and the male side to the DB-9 connetotr of \nthe CT-62. With that cable you can then easily lead out 2 extra wires \nto the Ground and DTR pins to control the interface.\n\n73s, Erich, DK1TB\n\nAm 01.06.2019 um 14:48 schrieb Tim Rife via AMSAT-BB:\n> Thanks for the reply Erich.

The voltage at the DTR pin of my USB-to-Serial converter (which generates the Radio 2 COM port) changes between +6 (high) and -6 V (low), when the user switches between v/u and u/v satellites. The corresponding option in menu 'Options' must be checked, of course.\n>\n> If the DTR pin is low, the buffer interface locks and the relay remains open. If the pin is 'high', the interface is routed and the relay closes. I do not have a transfer relay, but have successfully tested the function with a 12 volt coax relay.\n>\n> 73s, Erich, DK1TB\n>\n> \n>\n> _______________________________________________\n> Sent [email protected].
