RoMac Automatic CW Identifier

Frequently Asked Questions

 

  1. How do I know if my computer and sound card are compatible with the RoMac Automatic CW Identifier?
Download and install the program. After installation and the software starts up without an error, normally that means your system is compatible.

The smallest system that the software has been tested on is 400 MHz Celeron with 128 MB of memory with Windows 2000. The Automatic CW Identifier has been tested on Creative, Intel High definition sound systems, Dell Latitude Laptops.

The system was developed with a Creative Audigy 2Z card.

Without the license key the software will not save any settings and will operate for 25 minutes at a time.

 

  1. I get an error that only one instance of the RoMac Automatic CW Identifier can be launched. 
Make sure you didn't start a second copy of the software. If it is the only instance that is running, it is probably due to lack of system resources or a sound card incompatibility. It may also be your preferred playback and recording devices in the Windows Control Panel are set to something other than your sound card.

Ensure your sound card drivers are up to date and DirectX compatible. Install DirectX 8.0 or higher.

The smallest system that the software has been tested on is a 400 MHz Celeron with 128 Mb. You will need to upgrade your memory capacity and/or processor.

  1. I get an error there is no sound card installed
Check the preferred sound devices in the Windows Control Panel. They should be set to your sound card, not something else such as a modem device or mapping device.
  1. License Key doesn't seem to work
Make sure you're not mixing zero's and the letter O. The "0" is a bit more elongated compared to the letter "O"
  1. RigBlaster Pro Setup
1) On the P6 jumper set it for Mic OUT to Computer Enabled

2) Run a cable from the "Mic Out" on the RigBlaster to the "Microphone In" on the sound card

3) Start the RoMac Automatic CW Identifier software. Select Sound Card from the menu. Uncheck the mute check box the Mic on the Play side AND select the microphone on the record side.

4) The RigBlaster should be on and process switch "on" (UP)

5) Now the microphone audio is routed to the sound card, then routed directly back through to the line out, which in turn is routed to your radio.

This brings in a few more controls to set your audio drive to the radio. These will be:

1) The Mic slider, Master and Wave  on the play side. Start with the Mic all the way up, the Master and Wave 3/4 up.

2) The +20 dB check box on the record side (if your sound card supports this) Shouldn't need to check this box.

3) The level control on the RigBlaster. (Suggest 1/2 way or so.)

Set these controls for proper audio levels for the microphone. Use the "Level" slider in the CW Identifier, to set the audio level of the CW Identifier.

The RigBlaster should now be providing the proper serial line signals for the RoMac Automatic CW Identifier and your microphone audio routed correctly.
