OM Power to Flex 6000 installation tutorial needed

DDUTIL OK any of the A “Auto” OM Power amplifiers work with the Flex 3000,5000,6000 series, Apache Labs ANAN (Any) Requirements: One free com port on your PC. (It can be a USB COM ) One null modem cable with the correct connectors to attach to your computer /OM Transceiver RS232 Port. One Ddutil , or Commander ,program , There are others but these work fine. For this discussion I am using DDUTIL After you download Ddutil : (Send him money It' a great program ) SETUP If you have a Flex 6000 series check Signature The port listed is the CAT port on the Flex. If you are using a ANAN select legacy radio and follow the same setup PORTS RCP,s Here is where you pick the com port on the PC . The program will re direct all the info for you. Be sure to maintain one baud rate and the rest of the info ok. (You may have to go to the PC setup to define the Baud rate of the selected hard port. If you have a ANAN or Flex 3000 ,5000 then your selections are different. For Flex It Is legacy For Anan in options go to DEMO/HPSDR (Check same) If you are running Ham radio delux Logging select HRD Apps Enab (Choose correct version) Super this way Plug cable into computer and Transceiver port (NOT PC port) on OM POWER rear apron The PTT goes from the radio to the OM where it should. Almost there ; On front panel of OM select where you choose what radio you have (I use Elecraft or Kenwood ) Select the correct Baud rate. Now the hard part. Restart First the Flex (WITH THE CAT RUNNING) or the ANAN then Start DDUTIL if setup correctly it will tell you that the program is communicating with the radio CAT . The OM If in AUTO will respond by reading the Frequency Adjust to that Frequency/band . The OM will go anywhere in Manual It's that simple. OM Amplifiers are one great series of amplifiers very very well made great choice of tubes I personally love Tetrodes. They do tune/load a bit different so at least read or look at the web site it has tuning video They can produce BIG BIG Watts They really have the KVA transformers in them that will effortlessly do this all year long. So it is very easy to produce the 1.5KW .At this rate my OM will last forever. I do use mine with 6500 , KX3 , ANAN 200D ,YEP All run my OM at legal .Fully Auto . You do hear comments about Fan noise For me it has absolutely never been a issue And I run electronic audio processing. Like the Big boys should.

Hi Kari

There is no benefit to using DDUTIL. Just connect directly to the PC Serial port. Set Amplifier to Flexradio. Works great but only for TX on slice A. That will be resolved once Flex creates a CAT port type that exports TX slice frequency.
