Cw & Winkey Tab; Cw/Winkey: Winkey Settings - microHAM CW KEYER Manual

This tab provides the configuration for the internal, WinKey based, CW keyer. A complete WinKey manual can
be downloaded from: HTTP://k1el.tripod.com/docfiles.html. Thanks to Steve Elliott, K1EL for this great product.
WinKey can be controlled by a logging program or operate in stand alone mode. Router controls the speed
range, paddle mode and other timing characteristics of Winkey. When an application opens WinKey, all buffer
handling and speed changes are strictly under application control.
When the port is closed, the WinKey operating parameters can be changed from this tab. Every change is
applied immediately.
The WinKey CW output (pin 3) is wired in parallel with the serial CW output.
The WinKey PTT output (pin 5) is connected by a jumper (SO1R/SO2R) to the PTT jack or pin 6 of the REMOTE
jack.
