[hpsdr] Trouble upgrading from Ozy to Metis

[Phil Harman]

Hi Darrell,

If you have multiple network adapters in your PC then this is a known issue. 
PowerSDR does not do a discovery on every adapter in which case it may not 
find your Metis board.

Bill, KD5TFD, has written a fix for this, I've tested it and it works fine. 
Bill will release the fix to the software developers today.

The fix has been included in the latest version of Unified KISS Konsole so 
you may like to try that whilst PowerSDR gets updated.

First of all I must thank John, Bernd, Larry, Andrea, and Phil for
your replies and show of support.

I’m running Windows XP.

Under TCP/IP properties I changed the IP address to 10.10.10.2 as suggested.
The subnet mask is 255.0.0.0
No entry in default gateway.
No entry in DNS

The IP of Metis is 10.10.10.4

Only the bootloader mode seems to really function as I am able to read
and write the Metis IP address and read the Metis MAC address
(00.09.46.05.E6.14). According to the HPSDR Programmer dialog box I am
able to successfully load the current firmware versions; Metis 1.8,
Mercury 3.2, and Penelope 1.7.

With just two exceptions, I still not able to discover Metis in the
HPSDR Programmer Discovery Mode.  I receive an error opening Power
SDR/OpenHPSDR v 2.2.3; “Error starting HPSDR, is it connected and
powered?”.

The two exception occurred while trying different IP settings. Just
twice the Discovery Mode did find Metis and identify the software
version 1.8. When I launched Power SDR/OpenHPSDR v 2.2.3 I receive an
error stating Metis v 1.9 requires Penelope v 1.4. Yes, that was Metis
v1.9. The bootloader program identified the Metis software version as
1.8. I powered the rig down and restarted. I was no longer able to
discover Metis in the HPSDR Programmer Discovery Mode.  I receive the
same error opening Power SDR/OpenHPSDR v 2.2.3; “Error starting HPSDR,
is it connected and powered?”.

I have tried an Ethernet cross over cable and straight cable. Nothing helps.

I switch back to Ozy, reprogram Mercury and Penelope, and all is well.

Are my setting above under TCP/IP properties typical?

73, Darrell WW4F
