No Bluetooth connection

Post by DH1KLM »

Hello,
updated to Version v0.7.1-1, app is now starting, but my IC7000 can not be controlled
via Bluetooth. Connection Speed is set to 19200 baud. Tried other baud rates with no
success, Bluetooth connection seems to be established but radio did not respond.
TRX can be controlled via Bluetooth with Notebook running Ham Radio Deluxe, so my dongle is working.
Will try another mobile phone tomorrow.

Hi Sigi,

Connection speed setting in my app is only for USB connection. The Bluetooth connection has the speed set in the dongle.
Have you triend all functions and none works?
I'm very interested to solve your issue, but as I dont have an Icom transceiver to test, I count on you.

Thank you,

Good morning Dan,
just tested on other mobile phone, same problem here, dongle is recognized
but so far no communication with TRX possible.
Paring with dongle is done and the name also showed up in start screen.
Is there a way to log the Bluetooth traffic between mobile phone and dongle?
Does it make sense to install a older version?

Hi Sigi,

I come back with my previous question. Have you tried all buttons and none works?

I will try to build a debug version of the application for you and send the link.
Then I will ask you to send me the log which will be created.

Thank you,

Hi Sigi,

When you long press on round blue power button, the virtual round led around it goes blue?
I cannot see from the screenshot because of the menu which is open.

In a few minutes I will send you the link to a new version of pocketrxtx supporting logging.

Hi Sigi,

Please download version 0.7.1-2 from here:
http://www.yo3ggx.ro/pocketrxtx/pocketrxtx_v0.7.1-2.apk

To activate Logging, when in main app screen (in OFF state) long press grayed BAND button.
Any command you send after powering is logged in the file /prxtx/rxtx.log in the internal smartphone storage.

Logging mode is stopped when you power off or close the app.

Please send me that file after you try to send some commands. I've checked again and does not seems to be any issue with the command format.
I'm using the CAT protocol from here:

Thank you,

Hi Sigi,

I forgot to ask one important question.
Icom protocol is based on PC and transceiver addresses. In the config file for IC-7000 I'm using 00 as rig address (as I know this mean all rigs) and E0 as PC address.
Can you confirm these are the right values in your case?

To be sure, can you tell me the address of your rig, from the menu? How is this configured in HRD?
