Coming soon, I'll have a related article on my website www.k0pir.us
Icom 7610 settings and RS-BA1 installation, update and then settings in the RS-BA1 remote software.
I'm an Amateur Radio enthusiast. I love the hobby and experimenting with radios, antennas and software. I have a lot of fun. On my TH-cam channel I upload videos mostly on the Icom 7300 and Icom 7610 as well as Ham Radio software programs. I hope to inspire people to get involved in Amateur Radio.

Thanks for a great instructional video! Really made setting up my remote station easy!! 73
Thank you and thank you for commenting here. GL and Good DX!
I aslo use IC 7610. Now I am facing with software where the com port had been used for N1MM.. Could you please advise to setup the com port for the remote utility and also N1MM?
It's good to hear from you and thanks for commenting. I'm not sure what you are asking, but I generally use two cables, the USB and the CI-V. The USB cable can be used for CAT in N1MM and the CI-V can be use for rig control on something else like, WSJT-X. I have also used Virtual Serial Ports Emulator (VSPE) to share a port between two programs. I hope this helps. GL and Good DX!
Rich, watch the great instructional video. Here is my question, do I need to connect to the Lan port in order for the remote to work? Or can I connect to the WIFI here in the shack. Also, does having the Win4IcomSuite complicate this set up.
Tnx, John

Hi John, good to hear from you and thank you so much for commenting. I have my cable modem in my ham shack and I can connect to it with a ethernet cable from my radio. I can then use wireless to connect with my laptop and RS-BA1. Most of the time I am using the LAN. When I am out of the house I can still use my laptop and connect to the radio, because I have my router configured to allow outside connections. I’ll do a video on that coming soon. I don’t know about the suite. Take care and good luck. Good DX and best 73!
@@HamRadioAdventures Mine is working, but can't connect from outside connections. What do I need to do to allow this also?
Hi there Richard, Patrick PD1PRV here from The Netherlands. I'm using my 7610 remotely (radio directly connected to the internet without the use of a computer). My question: I don't get to see the scope on my remote computer! When I click on scoop the RS-BA1 (vs2) says "to use this function, connect using a LAN cable or USB cable set at 115200 bps" but I have done that! How do you use your radio remotely...connected to a computer or also directly on the internet (internet cable at the back of the radio). Thx Patrick
Good to hear from you and thank you for commenting. Verify your settings by going to this page. it has all of the screen captures on it, k0pir.us/icom-7610-rs-ba1-installation-settings/
@@HamRadioAdventures Thanks for replying. In the same netwerk it works like a charm, with scope and all.... the issue appears when I'm connecting from my other QRl. When doing that I'm using the internet so not in my closed network. Still the radio work 100% but I'm not able to see the scope... thats the question. Grtz 73 PD1PRV
I can connect to my radio locally on my network but I cannot connect outside of that.
Hi Chris it's nice to hear from you. Probably your router. Have a look at this page and I hope it helps. www.k0pir.us/icom-remote-operation-and-router-settings/
Very good. Lots of information
It's good to hear from you and thank you for commenting here. Take care and best 73!
I'm wondering how fast is your computer ? how fast is the rs232 set to 115k ? or more. reason i ask is the water fall has a horrible lag, and that is the ONLY reason I would waste money on it. thank you for doing the video I enjoy all your videos EDIT: never mind I asked before the end when you said LAPTOP. that explains that
Hello and thank you for the question. Yes it is my little laptop (celeron) that is causing the lag. I was running the screen capture software at the same time which was slowing it down. Normally it looks just fine. Thank you and best 73!
@@HamRadioAdventures how would you compare this software to the one used by FLEX radios ? does it even come close to it ?
We're going to link to this in our RS-BA1 demo video Rich; heaps of viewers asked us to do one but why duplicate your fantastic work? 73 your friends Jarrad VK3BL & Ben VK3HBN :)
Thank Jarred, I hope it helps. Hey maybe Field Day?? Are you a CW Op? Our callsign will be W0PIR. 73 - Rich, K0PIR
What about CW? How does that work? How do you set it up?

Hi James, nice to hear from you and I hope everything is well where you are. I haven’t used it in quite a while but I remember right you can use the CW memories and you can also use the keyboard for entering characters and sending CW that way. Just change modes on the radio and go to View and CW Keyer. The RC28 would come in handy while operating remote. A good source of information is on Facebook and the RSBA1 Facebook group. I hope this helps a little and this winter I will try it out from Arizona. It should work FB. Take care, be safe and best 73!
Will the rsba-1 v1 works with 7610?
Yes v1 is what is used in video. 73!

Question.
Do I have to have the RS-BA1 installed on my shack deck top computer to run remote in my Labtop?
I cannot get my Laptop to connect to my 7610.
All I get is
Connection failed
Do you have any suggestions on how to fix this issue

Good question Jon and thank you for commenting. No you don’t need it. Installed at your computer in your haM shack. Try to connect within the local network before trying to connect from the outside . Do you know what I mean?

@@HamRadioAdventures
Rich I have tried for several days, with no luck connecting to the local network. I just get Fail connection after I enter my server address or network then enter my user Id & password that I was entered into IC-7610.
Maybe you might know what I’m doing wrong. I also opened 50001 - 50003 in my router (UDP)

@@johnckerner1007 as long as the PC you’re using and the radio are on the same network you should be able to ping the IP address of the radio from the PC. Can you do that?
@@HamRadioAdventures
i did that Rich. still not luck. i'll keep trying.

@@johnckerner1007 check out the RS-BA1 Facebook group. They were helpful to me. Best wishes and 73 and good DX!
Hi Rich! Always enjoy your videos. What are your thoughts on this software which I would use for my IC-7300? I go to Denver twice a year and would like to bring remote capabilities with me. Do you have to keep paying to use this software like the HRD? It is more money but coming from ICOM it has to be pretty specific to their line of radios I am guessing.
Thanks

1crazynordlander thank you again for commenting and watching these videos. I sincerely appreciate it and I appreciate your comments.When you that software it’s yours and they just did a recent update. RS-BA1 is good software and it works, but you will need to have a computer attached to your 7300 and have the software loaded on it as well as on the laptop that you use remotely. I think maybe another solution is remotehams.com. I have not tried it but I know other guys are using it with the radio. The same would apply with having a computer connected at the station. Have you considered the ICOM 7610? It has the server software running on it and that makes it a little easier. 73 from Tucson Arizona!
@@HamRadioAdventures I will consider the IC-7610 down the road in a few years. I am 61 and just got into had radio. I have a ton of computers as this has been my trade for the past twenty seven years. I do tech support for two small public schools in my area. I take that if I get this software I can use it for the IC-7610 down the road as long as I us it for one instance at a time.
Why does the spectrum display and waterfall keep pausing?
Good question and I am sorry I didn't catch that. That was probably the screen recording software. The screen recorder taking up CPU caused it. No issues when running it normally.
When I do a video running remotely over a WAN I'll try to fix it. Best 73! Rich, K0PIR
It appears you were remoting in from inside your QTH. How about showing how to do it from outside the QTH?
Hi Tom, nice to hear from you and I got it setup a long time ago, but never used it outside the home.
My issue with operating from a remote location is the wx. In the summer I would never leave town without disconnecting my antennas. We have too many bad electrical storms in SD.
Now that it's winter, it's safe. Let me try it out in a coffee shop in town and I'll do a video on it and how RS-BA1 is working. I have a wireless headset to test out too.
Thanks again and best 73,
Rich, K0PIR
Can you switch between antenna 1 and antenna 2 with remote?
Hi Ray nice to hear from you. That’s a really good question and I believe so in the software you can change between Ant1 and Ant2. I haven’t use the software in a long time, but I hope to be using it more in the very near future. I think I’ll upgrade to the latest. I was a little put off because I just bought this version and then they came out with v2 without having an upgrade path. Happy new year and best 73!
Question 1. Why "USB" versus "ACC" in the DATA OFF MOD setting ? 2. Why 19200 baud rate instead of 'auto" in CI-V Baud Rate ? 3. Why "echo back ON " in CI-V ?
More later . Thanks de Andy K3UK
Andrew O'Brien I am using a USB cable and nothing on the accessory port. 19200 is the fastest for CI-V baud rate. CI-V USB Baud is set to 115200. I have echo back on because other programs I use need it on. Do not know if it is needed for RS-BA1 or not, but maybe so. There is an excellent RS-BA1 group on Facebook. I hope this helps Best 73!
Any idea how to make the second receiver band scope active? I've seen pictures of it but I have not figured out how to to this yet.
Great question Steve and I wondered the same when I saw it. It's the new RS-BA1 v2 software, HI HI! I haven't bought it.
I have the original version also but became confused after downloading the latest updates from Icom for that version. "The Icom Remote Utility" IS version 2.00 so I thought that would get me the second bandscope. The radio control GUI is 1.96 though. I see on their website now that previous owners of RS-BA1 are not grandfathered in to version 2.00. That's version 2.00 of the entire package. Looking at the price of the new package in addition to what I've already spent on RS-BA1, I don't guess I really need the second bandscope after all.
Yes, I was disappointed because I just bought RS-BA1 about 5 months ago. I think I can do without the new version for a while. 73!
