This tab provides the configuration for the internal, WinKey2 based, CW keyer. A complete WinKey2
manual can be downloaded from: http://k1el.tripod.com/docfiles.html. Thanks to Steve Elliott, K1EL for this
great product.
WinKey2 can be controlled by a logging program or operate in stand alone mode controlled by Router.
Router controls the speed range, Paddle mode and other timing characteristics of Winkey2. When an
application opens WinKey2, all buffer handling and speed changes are strictly under application control.
When WinKey2 is closed, the basic operating parameters can be adjusted on this tab. Every change is
applied immediately.
