I got a new HY-GAIN DCU-2 rotator control unit. Am trying to inferface with
Writelog.
This unit has a built-in chip, and only requires a USB cable to the PC.
I downloaded the recommended drivers, and a virtual com port was installed
via the "Found New Hardware" wizard. This shows as USB COM PORT 8. I set
this port up as the rotator control port in Writelog.
It works. But only once. It slews the rotator to the bearing shown for the
callsign in the entry box, as it should, but will not do it again for any
subsquent callsigns. If I go out of Writelog and reboot the PC, then
restart Writelog, the correct port (USB COM PORT 8) is still shown as
rotator control, and it will slew to the correct bearing. Once.
Any suggestions appreciated.
