[TRLog] Paddle Input Problems

[Michael Tope]

Jim,

Make sure Pin 14 of your parallel port has +5Volts
on it (this is the common terminal for the two pullups.
If you are using the Relay Control Port feature to
switch radios, pin 14 will toggle between +5V and
ground depending on which radio you have selected. I
use a separate +5V supply in my two radio swtichbox to
drive the paddle port pullups. 

Good Luck 

Mike, W4EF......

I bought a W1WEF CW interface, and I'm trying to get
the Paddle Input stuff to work.  I'm having the di-dah
problem mentioned in the manual.  Manual suggests
10K pull-up resistors.  I opened up the interface, and it
has the pull-ups.  Anyone got any other suggestions?
