Also, it would probably be easier to find a port breakout than find a PCI-Express serial card (a lot of new computers don't even have PCI slots anymore ).Īs for USB-serial converters, the prolific chipset converters have issues, so if you go looking for a new one, try to find one that uses the FTDI chipset.Recent updates from Microsoft might help fix the problem. It might cost slightly less than buying a separate serial card to just get the port breakout for an empty card slot. If you have some patience, a flashlight, and decent eyesight, you could pop the side off the computer and actually find the serial header (a block of jumper pins), or you could find the motherboard model number and find the documentation for the board, which should tell you where the headers are. Most motherboards, even those used by the big retail manufacturers, have headers that you can plug a ribbon cable into that goes to an empty PCI/PCI-e slot and provides the external 9-pin D-sub connector. The problem is just that they don't have any external ports for them. Most PCs, even the ones that are built by Dell/HP/Gateway/Etc will have serial ports available. What virtual COM port is your USB to Serial converter using? Is HRD set to use this port? Is the BAUD the same?Ĭlick to expand.Sorry to the OP, but this is off-topic.
Tell us what you see on your computer when you right-click the "computer" icon and select "properties" then "device manager" then "Ports (COM & LPT)." Pretty basic and I'm sure you have done this, but I've done more stupid things myself. The computer can set the BAUD different than what HRD sees. Make sure you have both ports set to the same BAUD. HRD is configured to use COM2 for rig control. In my case, my hardware assigns the CAT interface to COM2. I'm assuming you have checked the virtual ports assigned by your USB to serial converter and made sure that your CAT interface is assigned to the correct serial port and you are using that port in HRD for CAT control. I suspect there are some settings in HRD that are not configured correctly. It sounds like HRD does not like to communicate via the USB to serial converter you are using. The IC-7410 uses a direct USB connection to the computer, which as you mention is very state of the art, and I was surprised the USB port did everything. I'm using ICOM with the CI-V port on one rig (IC-7800) connected to a TNC, which in turn is connected to my computer via a USB port. However, we are running very similar rigs.

Has anyone found any other ways to get HRD working with Windows 7 after experiencing blue screens?Īny help would be greatly appreciated. While I am now fully operational I would like to use HRD for rig control.

I find it difficult to blame the hardware or drivers when all this other software work just fine under Windows 7. Again this converter works fine with all software but HRD. The USB to Serial converter is an IO Gear GUC232A with the latest drivers. So it comes down to HRD itself not playing well with my Windows 7 and my current hardware. Also the HRD log works perfectly as well in this scenario. I have discovered that DM780 will work fine under my Windows 7 setup when used with the DXLabs Commander for rig control using a DXLabs to DM780 bridge program. The result is always a blue screen crash after a few minutes of operation.
Nothing I do can make the HRD 5 and DM 780 combination work on my systems. I tried 4 different converters, that all work under XP and the one I am using with the afore mention programs under Windows 7. HRD and DM 780 will still work on this hardware under a Windows XP virtual machine using either the Windows XP virtual mode or oracle VirtualBox.Īll of my research indicated that it was the general consensus that the problem was with drivers for the USB to serial converters. This combination works perfectly on all of my Windows 7 machines. So I went back to using the DxLabs suite of software with MixW 3. This is on three separate Windows 7 machines. Since moving to Windows 7 I haven’t been able to use this software combination. I used to use HRD 5 and DM 780 on my computer under Windows XP.
