ICOM IC-7100

General

The latest HF/VHF/UHF rig from ICOM are supported by Remoterig. You get full remote

functionality from the control panel and the feeling is exactly as if you use them locally. It’s

one of the simplest rig to setup and come on the air with. No special cables needed, just

connect the RJ45:s and setup the parameters in the boxes. When you press the power button

on the panel the radio comes to life at the remote side and sound and panel info flows across

the Internet between the pair of RRC-1258MkII:s.

Hardware configuration

Unfortunately there are already two versions of the IC-7100. ICOM have made a hardware

modification lately (March 2014) which makes later produced rigs incompatible with the

original Remoterig boxes (New IC-7100 control panels are also incompatible with old IC-7100

main units). The reason of the modification was to avoid that data communication will be

heard in FM mode at low modulation levels. They have solved it by reducing the amplitude of

the data sent from control to main unit. To handle this modification in the Remoterig a

interface PCB called 1258M has to be installed in the (red) strap socket of the Control-RRC.

The Adapter PCB is available at our webshop. It’s quite simple so it can be built by yourself

also (see hardware mods at the Remoterig website). The Interface 1258M can be used both

for early IC-7100 and modified IC-7100

The ICOM modification was done from serial numbers US>02003001 and in EU>03003601.
