Difficulty installing FreeDV waveform

edited May 2019 in FLEX-6000 Signature Series
Can't install the FreeDV waveform program on my Flex 6500. I downloaded the .msi file and then double clicked on the file which installed the program in Windows. The red Icon is on the Windows 7 Desktop screen. In Smart SDR I opened the File menu and clicked on the Waveform Manager . I then clicked the Install button which took me to the Waveforms Folder where the FreeDV.ssdr_waveform file was located. I selected that file then clicked the Open button. The "FreeDV' title shows up as installed in the Waveform Manager list. I also noticed a small window popped up on the lower right saying that there was a connection to an IP address. Their is no "FDV" button on the Slice Flag . I have read the other threads and they are of no help.

    Your slice A has to be in FDV mode before you open the FDV applet.

    Tim,

    How do I put slice A in FDV mode if the FDV does not show up as a selection on the slice flag?

    Guy,


    Did you execute the download file?   The instructions are to remove the previous version of FreeDV  app and waveform,  run the executable  ( http://www.flexradio.com/downloads/smartsdr_freedv_waveform_installer-exe/ )  , then open the Waveforms under "File"   and install the waveform ..    Start the FDV  app,  and select FDV as the mode in SmartSDR,  A slice only..  

    There is a How To also ..   (  http://www.flexradio.com/downloads/freedv-waveform-how-to-guide-pdf/  )

    Hope this helps..

    I followed the steps exactly. A new waveform name appears in the Waveform Manager labeled FreeDV v1.0.3 but FDV never appears as a mode in the Slice mode list.

    David,

    As of now the FreeDV API is not functional, you need to now FreeDV on your computer using DAX for in/out audio and SmartCAT forPTT control. The most used FreeDVmode is 700d, which the app has not kept up with .
