I've never had an issue with their Serial cards, although I suppose there's a first time for everything.
ICOM 756 PRO II PROBLEMS DRIVERS
The drivers are for Windows 8/8.1 and the latest. The SIIG CyberSerial card is brand new, just got it Monday this week. I haven't been through every single driver but have tried 2 of them tonight with every combination I can think of. Now, the error window is somewhat consistent depending on when it appears, usually at the exact instant it polls the port. Its teasing me, just when you think it works.bam. Funny, I tried to be somewhat methodical, started with no polling, if an issue then changed stop bits (2 seems to work for most but I did use 1 for one of them), once I would get one working for one rig, I would then toggle polling on, and either I immediately get a window "LOGic.exe has stopped working.the usual "windows is going to shut it down and try to suggest a solution", or, it will work till I shut LOGic down, then the window pops up immediately after the mouse click to close, or if LOGic does close without an error, I get the same error window when I launch LOGic again. So, I've been trying various scenarios last night and tonight, and with the exception of the legacy drivers, it seems none will work. Okay, well, when I said "I tried (4) for the 746Pro and it couldn't find its own port" it just hung there and said port not found. To simplify things, get one rig working at a time, especially if sharing the port and using the Icom CI/V bus addressing.īoy, been a few years since talking to you last. It can be a matter of trial end error to find the right one to handle both split and VFO selection. All of the Icom line has similar command protocol. You might check with them and make sure you have the latest drivers.įor your rigs, try 46 & 47 first. I know they have been around for a while and had a good reputation. But if you have a good RS-232 port or FTDI-based USB=>RS232 adapter, use the new drivers. The old ones are there because they are there, and because some Prolific and other non-compatible USB=>RS232 work better (less poorly?) with one than the other. They have more flexibility in sharing with CW keyers, other Icoms, etc, and better status reporting. I think neither of those rigs are capable of reading split status. The C-IV is on COM port 3, both the 756 and 7, 2 stop bits.Įither of those drivers should set split status. I seem to remember on my old machine running LOGic 8 and Windows XP that I was using different drivers that supported split as well as a few other features. I'm running Windows 8.1 machine (Lenovo) with a new SIIG 4-port PCIe CyberSerial card and an Icom C-IV Interface. I tried (4) for the 746Pro and it couldn't find its own port. I tried (5) for my 756ProII and it caused the legacy driver (2) for the 746Pro to not find the com port or to report that the com port was in use. (5) Icom 756, 775, 7800 (and rigs that have Main/Sub VFO, no filter control) (3) Icom Plus - (For rigs that support computer control of split)(Legacy) Does anyone have a better write-up for the various drivers for the Icoms and what the differences are ? The descriptions in LOGic leave a little to be desired as to what features they support.

(2) For 746Pro - (Icom All except 735 and Omni 6) (Legacy) (1) For 756ProII - (Icom 775, 756, 7800 Rigs with Main/Sub instead of A/B Vfo's)(Legacy)

ICOM 756 PRO II PROBLEMS INSTALL
After a new PC and new install I have LOGic9 communicating successfully using the "legacy" drivers:
