To use this program, the reader needs to have at least one Icom radio and an Icom RS-232 converter box (CI-V). Actually, now there are better choices than Icom's RS-232 converter box. I just bought one of the new USB CI-V units (from Black Cat Systems ), and it is in every way better than Icom's own unit — cheaper, smaller, easier to use,.

ICOM CI-V interface to RS232 using transistors

CI-V Level Converter. Wideband Receiver Options. The Icom IC-R20 can be connected to a PC via the PC's RS-232C port using an optional ICOM CT-17 CI-V Level Converter.This allows you to control the R20 from the PC and/or transfer data from the receiver to the PC. Control is provided via Icom's CI-V communication interface. Please note that Icom does not offer R20 control software. Before you purchase one of my Icom CI-V or Yaesu CAT Ham Radio Interfaces, you are going to need some Amateur Radio software to get the most out of it. This page has links to various sites where you can download free ham radio softwareor shareware applications. These range from simple rig control right up to full logging software and digimode communications such as PSK31.

Concernig scematic for CI-V adapter. I drew down it from real pcb so I specified part value for readable components only. They all are smd.
C1 - ceramic (looks strange but it's true),
R5 - at least 0.5W
Q1 and Q2 I guess can be any switch transistors.
I checked this adapter with CI-V Explorer software, everything's ok.

ICOM CI-V to RS232 interface using MAX232

This design is in use with all my ICOM rigs since many years, without any problems. The power comes directly from the ICOM rig, one of the AUX connectors on the rear.
Since this connector provides SQL (open, closed) information as well, i have fed this line through the MAX232 to the RS232 CTS signal and can use it in my software.

A design with opto isolation by Gary Dion.
He writes in May 2001:

I built one of the designs (the one by Nigel, KG7SG) and it worked great. However, being the paranoid type I decided to design my own electrically isolated version. I figure it would be preferred in a field day situation with questionable rig grounding.
The biggest challenge was powering the optos on the radio side. The 8v line coming from the 706 can source at most 10 mA (per spec). This design pulls an average of less than 0.5 mA. This voltage can be pulled from either the ACC connector or the michrophone jack. If the microphone jack is already being used, it is likely connected to an isolated audio interface. Many isolated audio interface degins already exist, so I decided not to include that on the schematic.
I love being able to find -and share- all this stuff on the web.. -Gary

PC SerialPort, CI-V Interface and Radio Connections

*Power is'stolen' from the PC's DTR line. Some PC's (mainly laptops) do
not have enough current to power the interface. In thatcase, you may use a
9 volt battery or other 9 to 15 volt source with positive to pin J1 and negative
to J2 or J6. Also, a few older PC's swapped RX and TX on their serial ports.

DB9 Serial Port Connections

The DB9 serial port pin 2 is the RxD and is applied to the LTC1383 pin 14
The DB9 serial port pin 3 is the TxD and is applied to the LTC1383 pin 13
The DB9 serial port pin 5 is a common ground in the circuit

The DB9 serial port's DTR(pin 4) and RTS (pin 7) supply voltage to the input lead 1 of the 78L05 5 volt regulator. You should be able to measure +5 volts output between lead 3 (output) and lead 2 (ground) of the regulator (with a digital voltmeter!). Voltage is applied to pin 16 of the LTC1383.

Parts List

What rigs will this workwith?

The answer is found in yourmanual. If the CT-17 is listed as an option, this circuit should work. Check the back of the rig - the CT-17 interface is usually labeled 'REMOTE' and requires a 1/8 inch mono phone plug. These rigs should beOK: IC-761, 765, 706, 756, 775, 781, 746, 271, 471, 275, 475, 725, 726, 728, 735, 736, 737, 970, R71, R72, R700, R7000, R7100, and R9000. Some older Icoms like the 751a required a UX14 option since they were CI-IV and not CI-V. And some rigs with digital readout like the IC-701 lack the internal microprocessor to be able to be controlled by computer.

Do I Need to do anything to my rig to set itup?

Once again, read yourmanual. The software will want to know the rig's CI-V Address and its baud rate. For more modern transceivers, set the menus for'Transceive Mode', and 'Auto' Baud Rate. For example, on my IC-746, the address is 56h and baud rate is set to Auto. I tried all software at rates up to the maximum of 19,200 baud and the 746 recognized them all. If your older radio has a fixed baud rate, be sure to set your software to match.

What Software Can IUse?

· IC-746 software (RS-746) looks so much like a real IC-746, it is scary! It can be found at: http://www.egroups.com/files/IC746

---register for e-groups to download(if you don't mind looking at a 746 onscreen, you can even use this software to operate the IC-706 if you put in its CI-V Address). I don't believe that this software is 'free', so contact Icom toregister.

· Software for the IC-706, 706MkII, and 756 can be found at: http://www.halcyon.com/amreg/

This software developed by this dedicated group of hams isFREE!

· TRX-Manager is fromLaurent, F6DEX in France and offers a free (time/use limited) demo. It has the most features by far and does some logging too. Highly Recommended. Works with most Icom models: http://www.trx-manager.com/

Where can I learn more about CI-V Codes and also how do I test my newly constructed interface?

As for programming the CI-Vinterface, Ekki DF4OR, is one of the worlds experts. He has a great site at http://www.plicht.de/ekki/civ/index.html

Lots of info and other CI-V interface circuits besidesmine.

AA6YQ has developed excellent freeware called'CI-V Commander'. You can verify that the LTC1383 is sending commands in both directions and that the circuit is wired correctly. In fact, anyone building the interface should try this software to verify that they built the interface properly and that their Icom's CI-V address, baudrate, etc. are set correctly: http://www.qsl.net/civ_commander/

It is also a great tool to learn about CI-V commands

Will this circuit help me do computer-basedSSTV, RTTY, PSK31, ETC?

No. These modes require an interface to yoursoundcard, speaker and mic. See these references:

PSK31: http://aintel.bi.ehu.es/psk31.html

SSTV: http://www.siliconpixels.com/

Can I hook up multiple Icom radios in parallel on the interface as with the original CT-17?

I'm not sure(untested as of yet). Each radio must have its own unique address (so if you were lucky enough to have two IC756Pros, one of them would have to have its default address changed in the setup menu). Also, one knowledgeable ham/engineer named Mario (Marijan Miletic, S56A, N1YU) has suggested a modification to my circuit to limit the current on the CI-V bus to 5ma. He states that this will eliminate the possibility of software errors if multiple radios are connected in parallel. Here is a diagram of his suggestion. It will require 2 additional parts, so you might want to order these up front if you would like to try his suggestion:

Will this interface work with myYaesu, Ten-Tec or Kenwood?

Some Ten-Tec's need a level converter just like theIcom's, so I have a feeling this circuit will work as-is. Yaesu splits their TTL lines into 'serialin' and 'serial out' - so you should be able to use separate leads from IC pins 11 and 12 (with their own chokes and 100pf caps to ground) as well as the groundconnection. You would then use a 2 conductor shielded cable to the proper sized DIN plug for your model Yaesu. Pin 11 would go to 'serial in', pin 12 to'serial out' and shield to ground on the Yaesu DIN plug. This has not beentested, so let me know how this works. The Kenwood is a bit more complex from what I hear. Many models use an IF10 interface in addition to a TTL/RS232 interface. You may be able to adapt my circuit to include a hex converter IC from pins 11 and 12 and power it from the same 5 volt source. Please let me know if you aresuccessful.

Theory of Operation

The ICOM CT-17 RS232 computer level converter is both costly and requires external power. By using a cheap, readily available ultra low power TTL to RS232 converter IC, the Linear LTC1383, one can make a self-contained unit, which derives its power from the serial port itself. Although the IBM PC serial port was designed without a DC power pin, early mouse designers figured out a way to squeeze some low-current DC power from RTS or DTR lines (or from BOTH in the case of the design shown above). The LTC1383 draws only about 220uA at 5 volts - far less than most mouse circuitry. The above circuit should work with just about any serial port, including some otherwise finicky PC laptop ports. The LTC 1383 IC does all the work and requires only 4 capacitors to charge the internal pump circuits. Although one can use tiny 0.1uf non-polarized caps for the 4 charge caps, I chose some 0.47uf miniature polarized radial electrolytics to be extra sure of speedy response times in the heat of DX J . All parts are available at the time of this writing online from RadioShack.com, but might be hard to find at the retail stores. I have no affiliation to Radio Shack, but enjoy their excellent website and variety of fairly cheap parts.

I chose to use some pre-punched general purpose DIP circuitboard, a 16-pin DIP socket, 4 standoffs, 2 grommets and a tiny aluminum case to wire the circuit - which would add about $6 to the cost. Anal-retentive hams can etch and drill their own circuit boards! I'm sure some industrious hams will figure out a way to package the whole circuit inside a DB9 shell! Nfs most wanted english language patch download.

Instead of purchasing a DB9 femaleconnector, I pilfered the connector and cable from an old broken Microsoft™ serial mouse. I not only got a 'free' DB9connector, but I found that the 4 conductor shielded cable used by the mouse already had my 5 connections made to the right pins! I even used a couple of feet of the same cable (after cutting off the 3 unused leads) as a single conductor shielded cable to run from the aluminum box to the 1/8 inch miniature phone plug for my IC-746. One builder found that he had a short in his mousecable, so definitely test it thoroughly before using my mouse suggestion. If the thought of harming an innocent mouse is too hard to take, buy a db9 female and plastic or metal shell.

IMPORTANT: If you want to use a DB25 serial connectorinstead, remember that the ground pin is 7, DTR is pin 20, RTS is pin 4, TxD is pin 2 and RxD is pin 3! /download-android-23-emulator-for-windows-7.html. This would certainly give you more room in the casing to house the circuitry if you decide to go that route.

A note about the ferritebeads. Order two of part number 900-5005. I received 2 packs of 25 beads and wasted $0.25. But others have only received 2 beads and were happy that they ordered quantity '2'! So life is like a box of chocolates. You won't know what you get till you open the Radio Shack box.
