#46: IC-2200H memory programming -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: 2e0jtp@… | Owner: kk7ds Type: Bug | Status: closed Priority: Stability | Milestone: Component: IC-2200 | Version: 0.1.9 Resolution: Fixed | Keywords: Platform: Windows | -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Changes (by kk7ds): * status: accepted => closed * resolution: => Fixed Comment: Okay, I was finally able to reproduce this. There were a few issues, one of which was specific to the 2200. The memory editor will now force a tuning step of 12.5 kHz or 6.25 kHz (although not 6.25 in the case of the 2200, of course) if you enter a frequency that requires it. This works for all radios. The 2200 driver was also failing to set a flag that tells it and the radio which multiplier to use when calculating 12.5 kHz step frequencies, which is what caused the main issue. Fixed in changeset:600. Thanks for your patience! -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/ticket/46#comment:14> CHIRP <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/> CHIRP Development

[chirp_users] Help with Chirp: will download but not upload
by Jay D. Carter 02 Jan '10

02 Jan '10

Hello, I have emailed Dan about this issue before but I thought I would ask the group about this to get some additional opinions. I am trying to use Chirp (several versions including the 0.1.10b7 beta) with my IC-2820 connected via the data port. I have tried from Windows (XP and Vista) and Ubuntu and in each case I get the same result: I am able to download the contents of the radio with no problem, but when uploading the software shows a gas gauge for a minute or so, then returns to the main window. The radio display says 'CLONE' the entire time, and does not power cycle when the software appears to finish. The cable is a homebrew OPC-1529R going to an FTDI USB-to-serial adapter. I believe the cable must be OK, since I am able to download. Dan suggested I try using an OPC-478 on the SP-2 port...I built one using http://seed-solutions.com/gregordy/Amateur%20Radio/Experimentation/CIVInter… but I get errors from Chirp when using this (unexpected response from radio), and I have not been able to find a good method to test this interface I have GPS TX MODE and GPS AUTO TX disabled. Is there some other setting in the 2820's menu that might cause this? Can someone confirm for me that the radio should indicate 'CLONE IN' when Chirp is uploading? It seems it should since it shows 'CLONE OUT' when downloading. Also, can anyone suggest some troubleshooting commands I can send to the radio using Hyperterminal, etc. to verify that it is receiving commands? I have found lots of CI-V commands but nothing showing the IC-2820's CI-V address; I suspect that radios with clone-only capabilities (no rig control) do not have an address, but there must be some command to trigger the clone-in sequence. Thanks in advance! Jay KA1RVR

[chirp_users] CHIRP 0.1.10b5
by Dan Smith 09 Sep '09

09 Sep '09

Hi all, I just posted CHIRP 0.1.10b5 with some preliminary ID880 support. That's the only change, so if you're not interested in using it with an ID880 there's nothing else to see. If anyone has an ID80 and would like to try doing a clone, I'd appreciate it. I don't think it's going to work because I think the radios are more different than the marketing stuff would have us believe, but I don't really know. If you try to clone an ID80, please send me the image (if you get one) and the debug log (even if the clone fails). The ID880 support is somewhat preliminary, but most of the basic stuff works. The D-STAR fields and lists are not yet working properly yet. Since the 80 and 880 changed the way the repeater lists work, there will be some work I have to do to figure out how to merge these into the common radio model that CHIRP implements. Please report back with your findings (positive, negative, or neutral). Thanks! -- Dan Smith dsmith#danplanet.com, s/#/@/ www.danplanet.com KK7DS

[chirp_users] Interesting Compatibility Issue
by Steve S. Bosshard (NU5D) 05 Sep '09

05 Sep '09

I used Chirp plus a CSV file to load my 2820. Worked well until I realized you can put over 100 channels in a bank with chirp. If you use Icom CS afterwards, the Icom SW doesn't like over 100 channels in a bank. The radio doesn't seem to mind, though. Not a problem - just interesting. steve nu5d -- Belton Ham Expo - The Cheapest Hamfest around. NU5D - Nickel Under Five Dollars

[chirp_users] CHIRP 0.1.10b4
by Dan Smith 24 Aug '09

24 Aug '09

Hi all, I just posted CHIRP 0.1.10b4 with the following changes: - Make import avoid merging callsign lists if the destination radio doesn't require the use of said lists - Add mass location modification buttons to import dialog - Make the hi/lo limit adjustments hit the 'go' button when user presses enter - When changing the lo limit to a value above the current, automatically increase the hi limit by 25 - Add a "recent" submenu to the Radio menu, which makes it quicker and easier to access recent radios - Fix issue when importing from an ID-800 image file containing "*NOTUSE*" repeater calls Hopefully the usability improvements in this version will be of interest to some people. They came from me doing a lot of radio programming this weekend and getting frustrated with things :) The "mass modification" buttons make it easy to increment/decrement the new location of every imported memory (i.e. conversion to/from radios that start at 1 instead of 0) as well as reverse or auto-number the new imports. The hi/lo limit change makes it much quicker for me to jump to a range of memory locations with just the keyboard. Finally, the recent menu really speeds the process of downloading an image, making a tweak, and then uploading it right back to the radio on the same serial port. -- Dan Smith dsmith#danplanet.com, s/#/@/ www.danplanet.com KK7DS

Has anyone written a converter from DStarComm 'csv' to Chirp 'csv' files ? Such as the ones 'exported' from here: http://www.nwham.com/repeaters/keyResult.php?keyword=FARRN&state_id=CA01 Shouldn't be too difficult, just don't want to waste time if it's already done. Simon.

For 91AD how about DL both VFO "A" and VFO "B" memory tables then let us toggle between them? Default to max memories available on that radio then let the user reduce the size rather then your per-set 25 memories. I was able to DL my existing 91AD VFO A memories and saved to your .chirp file. I try to open .chirp via NEW then OPEN the file... I get a constant error opening JSX-A.chirp. "Unable to load schema" message that appears truncated. I tried to convert two RS91 made .icf files - Chirp appears to open the files then asks me for a save name. I've typing a name like JSX-a.img and nothing gets made. A very brief window pops up I cannot read no .img is made (I looked throughout the PC folders/drives). Appears the program does not work with files functions.

[chirp_users] CHIRP 0.1.10b1
by Dan Smith 19 Jun '09

19 Jun '09

Hi all, I just posted CHIRP 0.1.10b1 with the following fixes: - Fix crash when no serial port is unrecognized - Fix setting memories with dash characters in the name - Fix memory erasing on icx8x - Fix coercing the "TX Inhibit" flag on icx8x - Fix fractional frequency detection and setting on id800 - Make CSV driver use a semicolon on locales where a comma is used as a decimal point Some testing and feedback of the locale change would be appreciated. Also, I've still been unable to reproduce the 2820 clone-via-serial issue that some people have reported. Do send those debug logs :) Thanks! -- Dan Smith dsmith#danplanet.com, s/#/@/ www.danplanet.com KK7DS

I have just down loaded chirp. I am using a laptop with windows vista. I have a usb to rs232 adapter. I can use d-rats on this and works fine with my v82 radio. I have the baud rate set to 9600. data bits 8, parity none, stop bits 1, flow control xon/xoff. com port is 5. when I try to down load from radio i use com 5 and radio icx8x and keep getting an unexpected response from radio error.

Note that I only had a U82 to test with, but I think it should apply to the V82 as well. I think the problem is just that the radio's memory just had that flag already set on the channel you were opening and I wasn't clearing it. This change forcibly clears that flag when you create a new memory channel, but shouldn't clear it on channels you're just editing. Also added memory erasing as it was missing from the icx8x driver (oops!) -- Ticket URL: <http://chirp.danplanet.com/trac/ticket/28#comment:3> CHIRP <http://chirp.danplanet.com/trac> CHIRP Development

This *sounds* like excel rounding the number, which is solvable by setting the frequency column to a type of "text". If I create a CSV file containing a memory channel with the frequency you specify, it works correctly for me. Having the CSV file itself may help me replicate the behavior if it's something more obscure.

[chirp_users] Chirp / IC2820
by Steven Samuel Bosshard (NU5D) 09 Jun '09

I had a little time this morning to play with Chirp and the 2820. I made sure the GPS TX was turned off. When I try and read the 2820 the cloning window opens and the program hangs. It reads OK with CS2820. I don't have a fresh log file handy - need a new battery for my laptop so I can go out to the truck and try and read again.

[chirp_users] Upload failure on V82
by Simon Wood 26 May '09

Hi, Just found Chirp and it looks great. I can download from my radio, but the upload fails with about 1/3 progress bar filled. I had a poke around and it looks like the '.img' file is a bit on the short side, and would need to be padded up to size. After I import an '.icf' and save it as an '.img'. I can then create a fake '.icf' and compare the original with what chirp produces.... -- simon@bourne:~/chirp-0.1.9$ hexdump -v -e '"%04.4_ax10" 16/1 "%02.2X" "\n"' imported.img | tr '[:lower:]' '[:upper:]' > fake.icf simon@bourne:~/chirp-0.1.9$ diff -d --side-by-side fake.icf original.icf > diff.txt -- 'diff.txt' is attached, you can see that it is missing data (all 0's) at the end of the file: -- 19301000000000000000003238323630303031 19301000000000000000003238323630303031 > 19401000000000000000000000000000000000 .... > 2FF01000000000000000000000000000000000 -- Cheers, Simon. PS. I don't have UT-118 installed, I'm just looking for a Free/OS way to program this radio. PPS. Do you have plans to include changing radio configuration (as well as memories?)

[chirp_users] Just got CHIRP, And Hello!...
by Jeffrey M. Swiger 22 May '09

22 May '09

Hi All: First off I'm New to the Group and D-Star, So I wanted to say Hi. Second I had got the IC-92AD in here Monday following Dayton, and this was my First D-Star Radio and real Exposure to the System. The following Thursday I got the IC-2820H in for the home. When I ordered the HT I was told the software made a Big difference, so it was ordered, Same with the IC-2820. Well, I Ordered the RT SYSTEMS software and cable Combo, and still cant get the two to talk. I found CHIRP and it was working as quick as I could get it loaded on the PC. I'm a Mac OSX user and have worked with Linux in the past, but LOT of Radio ware needs PC's so I have a Small Notebook for such things. After reading the FAQ, I found I had to change one Setting in the 92AD and now it's working FB here. So THANKS!... Sure am looking forward to a Installable OSX version to happen, This would make my Day. Being new to the entire D-Star thing I'm still a bit confused on some of it but the CHIRP software and the programming help of it sure is a help!.. Jeff-N8NOE " Laissez Le Bon Temps Roulez " >
