How to set up an ICOM with Station Master Pro

To ensure the spectrum waterfall scope works in Station Master Pro please select these settings in your radio:

Install the USB Driver before connecting radio to computer via USB - https://www.icomjapan.com/support/firmware_driver/2417/

** 7300 MK 2 owners please read ** you will need to change the CIV address in your new radio to that of the old 7300, so change FROM B6h TO 94h

** Ensure the radio is in VFO mode, not memory mode

The BAUD setting in Station Master must = 115200 (see image below)

Set CI-V USB PORT = Unlink from [REMOTE]
Set CI-V BAUD RATE = AUTO
Set CI-V USB BAUD RATE = AUTO (115200 if listed)
Set CI-V TRANCEIVE = ON
Set CI-V USB ECHO BACK = OFF

Also:
- The waterfall must be visible on the radio (no menus open)
- Set waterfall to "FIX" mode (not CENTER), this stops the waterwall moving
- Set waterfall bandwidth to the highest level (this gives you the best resolution waterfall in Station Master)

Once you have the rig connected:
Open Station Master
Click Rig Control -> Start
Click Rig -> IC 7300 (or similar)
Click Scope -> IC 7300 (or similar)

You may need to right click over the SCOPE in SM and turn UP the Level and Speed to see the waterfall, don't turn the speed up too much as it will look very pixelated.

That's it, click Save and Restart and allow Station Master to Restart

- Along the Top menu select Rig Control > Start Rig Control (it may already be started)
- Along the Top Menu select Rig > RIG 1
- Along the Top Menu select Scope >RIG 1

If all else fails, please try to run SM Pro "As Administrator" as that is required for some people, it depends on your windows account type.

If you have problems getting the radio to connect, turn off power to the radio for 30 seconds and also close Station Master, then try again.
