Ed, do you have the USB cable guide? https://www.flexradio.com/downloads/usb-cable-interface-guide-pdf/ I am using the Sain Smart USB 8 board driving my antenna switch. Dave wo2x

You mention the ATAuto tuner.  I assume you mean the original AT-Auto sold by PalStar.  If that is the case what does using the usb to rs232 provide?  Will the AT start tuning using the usb-rs232 as soon as the band change occurs so keying up the radio is not required?  The manual is not too clear on this.

Hi Bret

Thank you for the information.  That will be one of my tasks for today to get the AT set up and working with the 6700.  I am waiting for the new amp but I suspect that may be a month or two away.

I'm not sure yet if it is in  "profiles"  but it would be nice to have it so you could have a different profile to Enable and Disable the individual USB device to do exactly what your needing.
Maybe as more and more of us start running remote there will be a bigger voice that this can be added.
Be a good addition for sure.

I dont think the USB settings are included in any profiles as far as I know. Has not worked for me.

I made the changes to the AT-AUTO and plugged the cable in and it worked as advertised.  There is a question I have regarding the Auto-report (Enabled/Disabled).  Just what is this reporting and how will you know whether it should be enabled or disabled?  By default it comes disabled, however, for the AT-AUTO it is supposed to be enabled.  I read the USB Cable manual but I did not find any mention of this option.

With a USB hub on one of the Flex USB plugs you can have multiple devices (more than the two USB plugs available on the Flex) hooked up to the Flex. I have the SteppIR, ACOM 2000A and the Elecraft KPA 15000 all hooked up and controlled from the 6600M without the computer involved in any way. So many options for direct control not involving a desktop or laptop computer.
