Re: Juma PA100-D auto band tracking

Hi, Guntram, Let's see if we can find out what is wrong. If you have my version of the firmware loaded, then there are a couple of tests in the Serial Test Suite that will help. In the User Configuration menu ensure that you have the Frequency Sense mode selected. Also, ensure that the serial port m...

Re: JUMA 100D Firmware Update

Hi Greg, Glad that you have managed to load the new firmware. As for calibrating the frequency counter, refer to the instructions on page 18 of the User Manual. With an input power of 100mW to 5W, not critical, inject an accurately known CW signal on 10m. I suggested the default Juma TRX-2 10m band ...

Re: JUMA 100D Firmware Update

Hi, Greg, Excellent! Yes, in order to access the test commands the RS-232 port has to be in the TEST mode. I apologise if I did not make this clear. I am relieved that there were no hardware problems, removing chips and replacing them is a difficult job and involves the risk of seriously damaging th...

Re: JUMA 100D Firmware Update

Hi, Greg, Obviously it's now time to get really serious. It has been more than 7 years since I last used the original firmware, but looking through my firmware archive the amplifier with the original firmware should respond to the following commands: Command: I Response: The message: JUMA-TRX2 copyr...

Re: JUMA 100D Firmware Update

Hi, Greg, One other suggestion. We need to be absolutely sure that there really is data going to the PA-100D. To verify this we need to loop the TX DATA to the RX DATA line of your USB-RS-232 converter. Then when you send something from your terminal program it should be immediately echo'ed back. So...

Re: JUMA 100D Firmware Update

Hi, Greg, This is a puzzle! Before you try and replace the MAX232 chip, it's wise to see if it is working. The old RS-232 standard inverted the data, so on the PA-100D TX Data side a +5V TTL signal is a logic '1' and this should indeed result in a -9V output signal on the TX DATA line, similarly a -...

Re: JUMA 100D Firmware Update

Hi, Greg I'm sorry to hear that you are having a problem, let's see if we can determine the cause. To answer your questions, -6.3V for the TX Data line from your USB-RS232 converter is perfectly OK. I have measured the voltage from several of these converters, and both the FTDI and Prolific chipsets...
