N7600

[Don VA7QU Poaps]

I've been trying to get WOAD to work with my Google Cell and Samsung Tablet. If I go to the device settings. VGC N76 show up; however, if I try Generic and get Bluetooth to pair with the N7600. Samsung and Google cell Bluetooth devices do not and will not connect.

I'm trying to reduce the weight of carrying my Toughbook in my wheelchair.

[WoAD Support]

Hi Don,

If you set the "Device manufacturer" (found in WoAD in the Session settings under "TNC configuration", "Device initialization") to Generic then WoAD assumes that the radio is configured correctly to act as a KISS TNC. Setting the "Device manufacturer" and "Device model" to VGC and VR-N76 respectively will allow WoAD to try and configure the radio appropriately. In particular WoAD will check "Enable KISS TNC" (General Settings... KISS TNC...) and uncheck "Digital Mode" (General Settings...) on the radio, before starting a session. If you're going to use the Generic configuration in WoAD make sure you have manually done the same on the radio before starting a session.

Another common "gotcha" when using WoAD with the VR-N76 (or equivalent) is when another program already has a Bluetooth connection to the radio. The radio will accept only one Bluetooth connection at a time. Make sure that any other app or program (running on any other device) that may have a Bluetooth connection to the radio has been terminated before starting the WoAD session.

Hope that helps,

Andrew

I thought I had turned off the Bluetooth on my cell, etc., but I forgot to turn off the Toughbook's Bluetooth. I'll try again.
