ARI-500 and ALS 1300 interfacing band changing
Ok I would like to give out this information.
This is my BCD log data 160m, 10m etc.

According to Ameritron , the procedure is as follows, ARI-500 In stand by, Rear A/B of Amp RJ45 cables goes to the AMP A/B of the ARI-500, ( Manuals are tricky, they do not give this information) They mention the remote panel
Plug in the RJ-USB600 to the Flex radio, in USB cables the settings are
BCD,
ACTIVE SLICE,
HF_BCD,
ACTIVE HIGH ,
RCA cable from the TX-1 port to the Relay of AMP. ( Not the PTT weird )
Now the amp is still off, The operate switch is in stand by . IT stays in stand by .
Band switch on REM
Turn on Amp , wait a full 2 minutes , Go to the ARI-500 Move the toggle from stand by to operate .
My mistakes were , active low on the usb, settings, not waiting two minutes, I guess the amp goes into a secret fault . The operate / stand-by on the amp was on operate, I plugged in the RCA cable into relay into the PTT. .
I was also told by Ameritron the ARI-500 can key the AMP ? with out the RCA jack ?
My FTDI cable was bad, and had to trouble shoot the problems .
This was a big learning curve , thank you for all the support on this community .
Yes the amp switches, and the Steppir follows Freq.
Flex is awesome, just save your settings , click the wrong thing nothing works. Reload the last profile all good again .
