Hello to the group.
Has ANYONE managed to install IP1kC software and get it working, and
if so, what serial configeration did they use, I have a Palm3C and a
palm M130, and I can't get either of them to work, the program
installs fine but with a serial port problem. I have used a straight
through connection and a null modem gender changer and I still get
the same error message ie: communication with the radio has failed,
does the software require handshaking of some sort? PCRpilot3C works
fine.
I have checked the service manual for the PCR1000 and found that the
handshaking connections seem to be used, ie:CTS/RDS are connected to
the DS14C232TM chip but does this software use them, it appears to
be something of a mystery, I have heard that some members of this
group has managed to get the software working, I would really like
some help from them, if they have time to respond.
Why the IP1kC software appears to be so complicated to set up is a
pity as it obviously is quite comprehensive and is worth developing
further (simpler scanning routine etc).
Hope someone can put me out of my misery, it's been a great father's
day, but it could be better :-).
