If you wish to serve the radio’s control and audio over the network, please see the Remote Operation guide. Verify that, for supported radios, the bottom-right corner lists the model number (or Rig ID) and not “NONE”. Once these parameters are set, launch wfview.
CI-V address: Use the default value (and note it). On the radio, the recommended settings, when available, are: Now press “Save Settings” and then press “Connect”. So if you have an IC-736, check this box. Basically, every radio made prior to 1998 lacks this command. This checkbox causes wfview to identify the radio by the CI-V address you provided, trusting that the radio is set to the default CI-V address, which other radios use as their default CI-V and reply to Rig ID queries. If the radio does not have a “Read Transceiver ID” command (0x19 0x00), then check the “ Use as Model too” box. But it doesn’t hurt if you know the CI-V address to just put it in. Some radios don’t require this step, in particular newer radios from the past two decades. 
For example, for the IC-7100, the default CI-V address is “88”. Manually enter the CI-V address of the radio.
Set the baud rate to the highest baud rate the radio reliably works under. Set the serial port to the correct port for the radio. Look how beautiful wfview is with a radio such as the Icom IC-718! I am accessing this radio remotely too! Setupįirst, it will be wise to launch wfview and set some basic settings: May use non-standard frequency format (IC-713, currently not supported)ĭespite these limitations, if you are willing to do some work, you can operate your rig remotely using wfview for the CI-V data and the audio. West Mountain Radio’s Rig Blaster-series boxes. 
These two devices include both audio to USB as well as CI-V and PTT:. For these radios, the usual approach is to use a USB to CI-V converter that includes the ability to toggle the PTT pin on the ACC port by means of the internal serial adapter’s RTS pin. Note, we have added the capability to use RTS (serial port signal “Ready To Send”) as a way to PTT. May have unusual metering scale, or no metering at all. Only works if the radio is using the default CI-V address. 
You can manually assign the CI-V address in the Settings tab, and then select “Use as model too”.May not answer our rig ID broadcast (discovery) request (Ic-706 and older).May require manual CI-V address assignment in wfview.May require manual baud rate assignment in wfview.Some rigs have integrated USB, and this is generally preferred.Difficult physical connection constraints.wfview gets waterfall data from the rig, so if your rig doesn’t have it, or doesn’t provide it over CI-V (IC-7700, IC-7600), then this part of the interface will be blank.Older radios may have several limitations: This guide applies to radios that are not in the core supported radios.
