Work in progress…<\/p>\n

An html example that sends and receives CAT commands with an Elecraft K4 connected to the serial port of the machine running the web browser.<\/p>\n

The file was built using examples from this article by Francois Beaufort.\u00a0https:\/\/developer.chrome.com\/docs\/capabilities\/serial<\/a> It’s an excellent resource for Web Serial.<\/p>\n

The html file for this project is here: http:\/\/www.pr0jex.com\/serial\/index.html<\/a><\/p>\n

But it won’t run from that server. It only runs locally.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Instructions<\/h3>\n

Download the index.html file from the link above. start a local web server, eg., “npx http-server” and enter the server address into a Chrome browser.<\/p>\n

When you press connect, the browser will prompt you to select a serial port for the radio.\u00a0 On my computer the K4 serial ports appear something like: cu2.usbserial-21100. There are 2 ports. Select either one.<\/p>\n

Then press read. If you spin the dial on the K4, and it is autoinfo mode, you should see CAT commands in the read window.<\/p>\n

enter a CAT command in the write window and press the write button. It is preloaded with “fa7;” which sets frequency to 7 MHz.<\/p>\n

Press the disconnect button to end your session.<\/p>\n
