Another thought, you can try manually installing the Visual Studio redistributable. It will be located in your install directory (usually C:\Program Files\wfview) and will be called vc_redist.x64.exe just run the program and accept the defaults (or repair/reinstall if already installed)
However regardig rigctld. Besides virtual port, the ānormalā setup with rigctld enabled
and wsjtx/fldigi configured with 127.0.0.1:4533 (unchanged) does not work. Audio is ok, but not qrg/mode.
And, just seen: memories are working like charm on both 7300&7610. However, how do I get back to VFO mode (without pressing the key on the radio)?
That is a very good question.The IC7610/7300 manuals arenāt very clear on that point. On various other rigs (IC-9700, IC-705,IC-905), you must be in MEM mode before you select a memory, so there is a button that toggles between MEM/VFO at the top of the window. I will need to see if I can do something similar for the 7610/7300.
It worked last time I tried it Unfortunately, with so many new features (and rewrites of existing ones) it is quite possible I have broken something, but it should be an easy fix for v2.01!
The house I live in is small, so the radios are in a room across the house where the coax can easily egress and my office is on the opposite side so I use WFView extensively to operate across the network. It is much appreciated.
OK this is fixed in Gitlab (and will be in v2.01) Now all rigs will have the Memory/VFO mode button in the memories window - tested on IC-7610, but should work on others)
Iāll add on here with 2.0 and an IC-7300, hamlib rigctld on wsjtx on 127.0.0.1:4533 DOES work for me, although wsjt-x freezes with the orange bubble for several seconds before going green, itās responsive after that.
However, Log4OM just shows offline even when itās connected with the same settings as I was using when wfview was 1.64, itās log file kinda hangs at:
2024-12-28 01:29:55.4094 INFO: [HamlibEngine] : [HAMLIB] Supported VFOās:
I have just tried wsjt-x and fldigi, yes there is a delay with wsjt-x initializing, I suspect it is expecting a reply to something and not getting it, but as you say it does work (as does fldigi)
I admit that I havenāt tried Log4OM with the new rigctld code (it has been completely rewritten) so it may be using a command that none of the others are. I will test this tomorrow.
The pre-amp and attenuation dropdowns are blank also not all the sliders and buttons like the NB appear to work. I donāt being a mule for the IC-718 and the Apple Silicon.
I have tried to replace the rig file for IC-7300 with the one you provided in your answer but still missing both tune button as well as cw transmit.
I tried to restart wfview a few times and to revert to default but still no tune button.
Running Windows 10 and tune button works great in v1.64.
The same file provided to @DL3EL above should also fix this issue. Replacing the file is a little bit more difficult on MacOS though.
Download the file IC-7300.rig above
Right click (or shift-click) on the wfview binary and select āShow Package Contentsā
Drag the IC-7300.rig file to Contents\MacOS\rigs folder
Select āReplaceā when asked.
When you run wfview, this may cause a warning to be generated about binary being altered, but you can safely ignore this until we release a new (fixed) version. I didnāt receive a warning though.
Iām sure i used your provided .rig-file but I did not remove the old file, just renamed it. When actually removing the original file the tune and cw buttons came back from the gray shades :o)
Iām sorry for not following the instructions completely and replaced the file as isā¦
Iām now using the file found on the github pages as I tried that as well.
I guess you either just look for any rig-file containing āIC-7300ā even if there are other letters in the filename as well, or just parse one file at a time until the rig ID is found.
Anyway, when actually removing the old file completely it works. Iāll continue to test also the remote features when I have the time.
Thanks for all the work you all put into this project!
