Have you tried a new download and install of both Omnirig and Log4OM?

We have many users happily using ts590 Omnirig and Log4OM including a couple of my friends so it has to be something local to your machine.

I will be home from holiday tomorrow and if you have not fixed it by then I will be pleased to have a team viewer session with you to resolve this problem

Hi Terry,
first of all I hope your holidays have been great and I wish you a good homecoming!
I've tried reinstalling both Omnirig (v.1.16) and also drivers (v.6.74), the latest version I found on the site.
Every now and then I see some activity: it works for a few seconds then it stops and does as if it were a loop.
I also reset the radio, full reset, but without seeing any differences. However, I do not expect to see differences because with HRD, HRCP-590 and Hamlib worked and it works.
Perhaps the PC's registry may be dirty because when I installed it again Omnirig intercepted the radio without having to rewrite the setup.
The radio was fine with this setup:

I do not know if it was the best but it went great without mistakes.
I also modified some parameters one at a time, but with no results.
Anyway with Hamlib radio and Log4Om are online and the configuration is this:

I hope I have not been boring.
Thanks for your patience and attention!

1. Make certain that you have the latest version of Omnirig Version 1.16

2. Ensure that both Omnirig and Log4OM are actually running as an administrator

Hi Terry!
Tnx for helping.
Yes, I have the last version, 1.16.
I modify as you suggested and now like to run.
I decreased the baud rate to 9600.
It like to be more stable and fluid because the radio continues to be connected and not connected but it is not connected for only a short time.
Probably there was also delay times before but I have not noticed it.
Tomorrow I will try to make more tests, now it is very late so now I switch off all.
I tell you news if any.

Hi Terry,
I am here again to say that it's all fine even with 19200 Baud.
Not so much difference with 9600 Baud that seems to have more fluability.
Anyway I can use again Omnirig but I also have appreciated HamLib thats run wery fine.
I will prefer don't choose beetween Omnirig and HamLib because if one has a problem the other let me use the radio!

Thanks for the suggests!
