Configure PowerSDR Keyer Connections
We can setup PowerSDR to connect to third party CW programs using the CAT port (i.e. the COM port
used for CAT control - COM 6 in Figure 157). To do so, on the PowerSDR Setup Form, select the DSP
Tab and then the Keyer Sub-Tab (Figure 158).
Figure 158: Setup Form - DSP Tab, Keyer Sub-Tab
Within the Connections Group, set Primary to the port you have your paddles or straight key
connected to (Figure 158 shows Radio to indicate the FLEX-3000 front panel key jack). Set Secondary
(used for keyers and programs) to CAT to use the same (virtual) COM port used for CAT Control. Set
PTT Line to DTR and Key Line to RTS. Note that CAT Control must be enabled (see the previous
section) before this will work. Click OK.
