How to use the cw feature of qlog?

[BI6NSL]

I have to say that Qlog is great, and I have recommended it to millions of people, but what I want to ask is how to use qlog's cw feature? There is no wiki, FT450D does not have a separate cw com port Thanks♪(･ω･)ﾉ DE BI6NSL junxi

The first step is to define the Key https://github.com/foldynl/QLog/wiki/Initial-Setup#cw-keyers. Based on your setup, you should select the appropriate interface (maybe Hamlib 4.5.5 supports the Morse Over Cat for the 450D).

Then, you should setup your rig and assign the key to the rig https://github.com/foldynl/QLog/wiki/Initial-Setup#rigs

And then connect the rig (via the main menu Equipments)

I use FLRIG to control the rig, through the network 127.0.0.1 and 12345 ports, access Qlog, which works very well I tried it. It didn't seem to work

I briefly look at the Ft450 Spec and this rig does not support Morse Over Cat. Therefore, on the Windows platform, you will have to use only Winkey Interface or FlDigi Interface as your CW key Interface. In the case of FlDigi it will be more complicated. I have no experience with FlRig and FlDigi simultaneously connected to one Rig.

Thank you for your comprehensive answer. Thank you. I'll try again. DE BI6NSL Junxi

Good starting point can be this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBzqACjQJDU

If you have connected FlDigi and FlRig then you can easily define FLDigi-type CW Key in QLog. By the way, then you are not only limited to CW, but you can also operate PSK and other Digi modes via QLog. This is a hidden benefit of having FLDigi connected.

As a final note, it is nice to know that Hamlib also works with FlDigi, so if one controls the rig with FlDigi but wants to use a software that only understand Hamlib, there is a "rig" in hamlib that actually connects to the FlDigi.
