Hamation Bandpasser AS-419

Is anyone using the Hamation Bandpasser AS-419 filter with their Flex Radios? The documentation is a somewhat confusing. I am reading that you have to raise 12vdc to the pin on the remote input to switch bands. I don't see how this can work if the FTDI USB to parallel interface only supply's 3.3vdc.
thanks.
thanks.

I found a level shifter that can be used if the AS-419 requires a 12vdc input.

Update - We purchased the Bandpasser and realized that BCD can also be used to control the unit. Took about 5 minutes to configure and it works with no issues.3

Hi Mike, can you use BCD right into the bandpasser from the USB cable ?1
-
Yes that is what we do. Here are screen shots of the config.
Hope this helps.

Please supply the wiring color code to the mouser cam shell FTDI USB unit. I can't get the correct wiring code to make the AS-419 to work.
Thx

Mike, your the man, Thx..
When you have the letters, I have numbers on my FTDI USB unit cam shell that I **** the colored wires into. Would A=1 , B=2?
Plus its a DB-9 for the AS-419
Thx
