PTC-IIusb

PTC-IIusb
Effective Datatransmission over Shortwaves. USB Support, Transceiver Control, GPS Connection. The Multimode-Controller for PACTOR-III*, PACTOR-II, PACTOR-I, AMTOR, NAVTEX, RTTY, CW, FAX, SSTV, AUDIO-Filter, Packet-Radio and PSK31
The PTC-IIusb allows direct connection to a USB interface of the modern notebook, and thus expands the SCS equipment program. The PTC-IIusb is constructed using existing equipment technology and its application is to be found mainly in the connection of clients. As a speciality, the PTC-IIusb is equipped with a transceiver control port, which allows remote control of the connected radio via software.
The Hardware
• Fully compatible to existing software by using a virtual COM port assigned by the USB driver.
• One single connector to the HF/VHF transceiver for all modes.
• Transceiver control for ICOM, YAESU, SGC, KENWOOD and Rohde&Schwarz, including RS232 for modern transceivers.
• Supported by Airmail/GetFax.
• Special JVCOMM32-Mode for optimum cooperation with JVCOMM32.
• Packet-Radio with 300, R600, 1200, 9600 and 19200 baud with built-in DSP.
