Setting up gpredict on linux for use with a Icom IC-910 radio.
Settings on the IC-910:
CI-V DATA Baud Rate: 19200
CI-V Address: 60h
CI-V transceive: On
When the radio is connected to the PC via the CI-V CAT Interface and serial port COM1 it is
on /dev/ttyS0 or higher number.
When you are using a usb-serial-rs232-adapter it should be on /dev/ttyUSB0 or higher number.
Setting up the daemon from hamlib:
~/Hamlib/Hamlib/tests $ ./rigctld -m 3044 -r /dev/ttyUSB0 --civaddr \0x60
main: #1 vfo_mode=0
Recommend using --vfo switch for rigctld if client supports it
rigctl and netrigctl will automatically detect vfo mode
The daemon should be running in the background now, "./" is only needed for local execution and testing, if installed from a package:
$ rigctld -m 3044 -r /dev/ttyUSB0 --civaddr \0x60
Or you can initiate with "systemd/rc-init" once testing is stable.
Radio config in Gpredict:
Edit -> Preferences -> Interfaces -> Add New
Name: IC-910
Host: localhost
Port: 4532
Radio Type:Duplex TRX
PTT status: None
VFO Up/Down: Main Down Sub Up

(to be enhanced...)
