WSJTX hamlib time out error

edited October 2019 in FLEX-6000 Signature Series
Following Tim's instructions regarding SmartSDR and WSJTX 1.7 but I still get Rig Control errors .  The details behind the error reveal a hamlib timeout issue .  Initially CAT works as expected but after 20-30 seconds the errors pops up.  Anyone solved this ?

    Which Model? If it was a 6300, then this thread might be useful information.

    https://community.flexradio.com/flexradio/topics/beta-and-wsjt-x

    JTSDK should now be building in the missing 6300 lines.

    If it was related to using the Flexradio 6xxx option in WSJTX 1.7.

    It lets you use a TCP CAT port. to connect using Ethernet.

    Thanks for the suggestions.  Polling tweaks made no difference.  However, things are working now after I gave up, too a break for an hour and everything worked after I rebooted software. The main changes I made were messing with the "fake it" setting in WSJTX.  With that off, things improved.   I know have it set as per Tim's instruction bulletin , Kenwood TS2000 set as the radio .  I may try the TCP setting though, looks interesting.

    Hello and happy new year to everyone!
    I have the same issue when using Ham Radio Deluxe (actual Version 6.3.0.613) with my Flex6300 and the beta 1.10.8 - after update no connect to the radio was possible, stuck while getting / reading frequency from the radio. So I went back to 1.9.13 and all works fine again. I think there are some communication issues or variations. 73 DL2KBQ

    I believe you are correct Guenther. I have been working on this issue since I updated to SmartSDR v1.10.8...
    I will look into it later this week and hope to solve the issues as many of you have!
    Andy (K3UK) for the last several weeks, I thought that I was the only one facing that issue: I am glad you asked it....73
