Device Settings

MK contains internal configuration. Default configuration is loaded from internal non-volatile (EEPROM)

memory. These settings cannot be changed without connection to the computer.

When MK is connected to the computer (with running router), settings are overridden by settings from the

router.

Any changes of these settings on subpages "Audio", "PTT/FSK", "CW/WinKey" are applied immediately to

MK. Default settings stored in EEPROM are not altered in this way. It means that if micro Keyer will be next

time powered without connection to computer it will use the old settings stored in EEPROM. To change

these default settings use button "Store as Default" placed on all related subpages or use menu command

"Device/Store Settings as Default".

Last subpage "Messages" allows to set the WinKey messages that can be stored to EEPROM of micro

Keyer. These messages can be used in operation without computer. They can be played (and modified)

using external keyboard or num pad. Messages are NOT a part of the settings that are applied

automaticaly. To store them use buttons "Store" or "Store All".

Settings and messages of individual devices can be stored to file too. Use menu commands "Device/Save

Settings to File" and "Device/Load Settings from File". Settings are described in detail bellow.

Firmware

Presets

Requirements of the logging or control programs are different and it is hard to find universal settings for all

your favorite loggers. One is good for SSB contesting, another is better for digital modes another for FSK

RTTY etc. For easy switching between loggers, router has built-in configurable presets. You can store

different keyer settings to these presets, rename each preset and switch between presets in a second

simply by touching the preset button.

Each preset contains settings of all devices (without messages of micro Keyers) and routing settings

(assignment of COM ports to device channels) too.

Thanks to the FLASH core technology of the internal

CPU, changing firmware is as easy as installing new

version of the computer software. You will not need

any special HW or SW, firmware can be downloaded

from our website and changed directly from the router.

MK firmware can be upgraded using menu command

"Device/Upload Firmware".
