G90 CAT Control Issues

Hello. I have been having issues with using my G90 with the DigiRig Mobile. Several times, I followed K8MRD’s tutorial on using it with FlRig, and had it working. Then one day I was unable to do so, FlRig was not connecting to the radio (error message from FlRig attached). So, yesterday I tried messing around with FlRig some more to no avail. I then tried using Omni-Rig as a replacement for FlRig. This did work yesterday, but when I went to try it again, it also does not work also with an error (also attached). I have attached images with my settings in both Omni-Rig and FlRig. I have messed around with both settings. I’ve tried using the Icom 756, 1 or 2 stop bits, et al.

I should note, that for Omni-Rig, I am only able to come to the conclusion that “something went wrong” by using WSJTX and the “Test CAT” button. This is also my only use for the DigiRig with the G90, nothing else like logging will be using it.

I think that this is a CAT issue in some form, since I am able to at least receive audio from the G90 and decode FT8. I’ve confirmed the wires are plugged into their respective locations.

Try setting up CAT control with Xiegu’s native blue USB dongle that came with the radio. This will allow you to then focus your troubleshooting on the specific area (software configuration vs hardware).
