Dr-891 no cat control

Hi All, I have been trying to config WSJTX for for my Laptop Windows 11 PC and a DR-891
I have loaded all the drives and the Audio Side works.
But I cannot get CAT control to work. I made and rechecked all the radio menu settings


i uploaded this screen shot
any suggestions

Can you please share the screenshot of the device manager showing the ports?
Also please double check the baud rate you set on the radio (Menu 05-06).

The detailed instructions are available at:

I followed the notes in the setup guide … and went over the settings twice,
( I did watch 2 YouTube videos and referenced the setup guide after.
the radio and the DR-891 are out in my truck…
But the ports are 10 and 11
I had the baud rate at 38400 and changed it to 9600 as per the setup guide
I even checked the baud rate in the com port settings to make sure they match.

I have set up a Digirig to work wit Winlink with my Yaesu FTM-100Dr and I digirig mobile with a Pi Zero 2w for APRS
Set up a signal link with yeasu an IC706 for winlink
running Wsjtx on a ic7100 ( not using Digirig.

If you still want to see a screen shot I can do it
the FT-891 is in my mobile along with an FT400.
I use the FTM 400 with a Mobilinkd TNC and WOAD on android for winlink,

If ports are COM10 and COM11, set WSJT-X to port COM11.

ok I read it wrong … I thought it said lower … or in one of the videos I saw it said lower … I will check it out
I think with the ic-7100 it uses the lower .,
thanks …
