KMTronic Serial Loopback Test Software

Written by

 

 

Loop-back Test Procedure for checking your Serial ports or

USBtoSerial Converters



1. If you have a USBtoSerial Converter, plug it in.


If you using Windows XP and newer before install drivers please check follow this information:

http://info.kmtronic.com/ftdi-virtual-com-port-drivers-installation.html

 

If you using Windows 7, Vista, 8 ... wait until Windows install drivers automatically.


2. You should check Device Manager to see if it is there first!

After the drivers' installed, an additional COM port appears in the Device Manager of Windows - usually, it is COM3, COM4 COM5 ...

 

 

 

Then proceed.

 

3. Connect RX PIN to TX PIN only

 

 

 

 

4. Download and run Loopback Test Software:

http://www.info.kmtronic.com/software/KMTronic_Loopback_Tester.zip

 

 

5. Choose COM port, click Open, write word or symbol and click Send

 

 

 

If you see reply the same you send - CONGRATULATIONs!

Driver is installed correctly and hardware work.

Raspberry PI is a small but very powerful microcontroller which allows you to do many things.
Using Raspberry PI we try to introduce not only our relay boards but also the capability of this controller.

Try it out :)  We promise you sleepless nights with lots of fun.

Door lock using USB Relay

Written by

 

 

Written by Adrian Pike

 

 

 

 

 

I’m not really a hardware guy.

I like being able to easily rig up a replicable scenario and have it, well, you know, act the same every time.

Not slightly different because it’s damp outside, or sunspots, or telekinesis, or some other tomfoolery.

Also, I’ve let the smoke out of way too many projects as a kid to be comfortable with a soldering iron.

A USB relay for your D-Star repeater


Written by Gary, KB2BSL

 

 

 

 

 

 

The internet bandwidth to the WG2MSK repeater in NYC is via a Clear(wire) 4G modem, it has a tendency to lock up, loose signal and never re-acquire despite being less than 50m from their tower. I have been through their "tech support" and exchanged the modem several times....

How to change default settings KMTronic LAN board

Written by

 

 

 

 

Turn OFF Wi-Fi Internet if you using Laptop PC.

 

Open ‘Network and Sharing Center’ and go to ‘Local Area Connection’ properties.

 

Set as show in next screenshots:

 

 

 

 


Connect to PC direct !!!

 

Open Explorer and type 192.168.1.199 and press Enter.

 

If all is right you will see Login menu board.

 

Type ‘admin’ ‘admin’ and go to Configuration page, change Board IP address, Gateway IP address and click Save Config.
