_______________________________________________Apparently quite different. Looking at the "full" manual for the ID-5100A, the entire command set (0x1A) that's used by Chirp's Icom live mode driver for programming is missing, and there are no commands to retrieve or set memories. It would appear that the CI-V interface on the ID-5100A is focused on control and not programming. Unless the command is implemented but just omitted from the CI-V documentation, that means the ID-5100A would need a clone mode driver, and not a variant of the IC-7100 driver.Someone said they were working on a driver for the ID-5100A and had a functioning prototype, but that was 7 years ago ...Martin.KD6YAMOn Wed, Jul 27, 2022 at 9:03 AM Chuck Hast <kp4djt@gmail.com> wrote:I wonder how much different the format is on the ID 5100 from the 7100.Sure would like to have Chirp working on the 5100.I am still willing to loan the radio to someone who could work on the codefor the 5100...On Wed, Jul 27, 2022 at 10:48 AM Martin Cooper <mfncooper@gmail.com> wrote:Assuming it's the same as for the IC-910H, the CI-V Transceive function is like a real-time updating facility, whereby when you tune the radio manually, it continually sends CI-V data to the computer. You do not want this enabled while running Chirp. FLRIG quite likely does want this enabled, so this may be the setting that Jim was referring to.The Chirp driver for the IC-7100 is a live mode driver. As such, Chirp uses the CI-V interface to talk to, and receive data from, the radio. I don't know about the connectors on that radio, but make sure you're connecting to the CI-V interface.Martin.KD6YAM_______________________________________________On Wed, Jul 27, 2022 at 3:03 AM Tony Ling <tonyg7txu@gmail.com> wrote:CI-V Transceive OFF or ON Turns the CI-V Transceive function ON or OFF

I know that when I used CHIRP on my IC-7300, I used a different cable
than I did when I used FLRIG. I also had to edit a setting in the
radio for CHIRP and change it back for FLRIG.
