Kenwood R5000 port setting
 
I have the R5000 and it is setup to connect to the computer. I did have
it hooked up to a much older computer and it worked just fine. I have
unfortunately forgotten the port settings to make the radio work. If
anyone can help I'd appreciate it. I am using Smart Kenwood Control 32

Thanks

Start the program. Go to tools and then options. A window for the port
setting will pop up. I use com1. If that dosn't work try the other ports.

Thanks for the response. Yes it is on COM 1 but I forgot the other port
settings. Within the program you click TOOLS, OPTIONS, PORT SETUP.

There are 5 adjustable settings in there. I remember I used to have to
change a couple of them for it to work but I forget which ones AND what
settings to choose.

Thanks again.

Ok. Let me give you mine. Maybe you can duplicate it and it will work?

Bit per sec. -4800
Data bits-8
Parity-None
Stop bits-1

Well with your help I'm back in action. My 5000 has the dreaded keypad
bounce so using the computer is great. My new computer doesn't have a
serial port, I had to buy a usb serial adapter. Along with your
settings I had to uninstall the serial drivers and reinstall them again
and all is fine.

I haven't used the radio in quite a while so I was a little rusty.

Thanks again

Why not buy a remote control for it so you can avoid 5the bounce issue?

They are $99
