DAX only works on CW

N3RC · October 2020

Flex 6600 v3.1.12

DAX only works on cw mode!

When set to other modes, get 424bps streaming in SliceA but no indication of output on DAX Streaming

bar underneath

On W10 Sound Manager get no input to DAX RESERVED AUDIO RX1

Reinstalled DAX drivers to no avail???

Any ideas

Sounds like there are two problems.

1) You're looking to DAX RESERVED - use the non-reserved port. Reserved is for internal use in DAX. Unfortunately, Windows doesn't know any better.

2) Are you using The I/Q setting (left menu) or the DAX setting from the main menu (and flag)? The proper DAX dialog is the audio (not I/Q) one.

Hope this helps!

Hi Roger, Have you checked that the RF Power control did not get set to zero? Also check in Settings, TX Band Settings that PTT Inhibit is not checked and that the RF PWR column is where it should be for the band in question. If you are using the mic to transmit (i.e. not a digital mode), you should be sure that in the P/CW tab of the radio panel, DAX is not highlighted and that MIC is selected. Also be sure that the mic cable did not come loose from the back of the radio. PTT will operate with no mic because it is on a separate jack, so this is something to check.

73,
