RX888 MKI Bias-T

Unread post by jim.j »

Hello everyone,

I am testing the new RX888-MKI receiver. Everything works except bias-T support. Bias-T checkboxes in the menu are grayed out so bias-T cannot be controlled. The receiver is automatically detected as RX-888 MKI, firmware 2.2. What do you think, is it a hardware fault or a software bug? In the LOGfile I found this:

13:15:18.630: Radio RX-888> Creating options window
13:15:18.630: Radio RX-888> Context ......: 0
13:15:18.630: Radio RX-888> Radio type ...: 3
13:15:18.630: Radio RX-888> Applying settings, Bias-T is Disabled

However, with the original EXTIO_sddc developed by Oscar Steila and the HDSDR software, bias-T works !

Hardware: RX888 MKI firmware 2.2
Software: SDR Console v3.2 build 2731
OS: Windows 10 x64 build 22H2
Cypress driver : 1.2.3.20

Thanks for the reply
Regards
