Try deleting all files containing 'Layout' in the file name from folder C:\Users\YOUR USER NAME\AppData\Roaming\Log4OM2\user then restart Log4OM

If that does not work try changing the program config/CAT menu by checking the box that 'Send mode before frequency' then restart Log4OM and see if it works


If either of the above do not fix it please do the following:

1. Set in Help/Log Level 'Tace' instead of info - Do not restart Log4OM

2. Change bands, frequency and modes a couple of times

3. In help generate a support request and email it to lele@pisto.it asking for a check to be made, refer to this thread and outline the issue please

Hi folks!
I have the same problem.
IC-7700 fw V2.20
MicroHAM microkeyer II
Windows 10
Omnirig 1.2 (use IC-7700v2 rig)
Log4OM v.2.32.1.0

I see the VFO A/B on top of screen, but will not populate in log.
Mode is working, "On air" ok, but "0" in freq field.
The cluster will not lock on band, when "Band Lock" is selected.
Worked perfect with my IC-7600, just changed the rig to IC-7700.

I've read the forum, and googled it for a couple of days...
Tried everything in this thread, and much more. Reinstalled everything, and running in Admin Mode. Not reinstalled windows yet, hihi...
Any ideas?

Have you updated the 7700 firmware, we used to see this when either the rig had not been updated or incorrect USB com drivers used

Rig is updated, V2.20 (latest firmware) and new usb drivers.
Cat is working, except for the "freq" entry in contact window. It shows VFO A/B correct in top of LOG4OM, mode changes correct, and goes "on air" when tx. If I click a spot in the cluster, radio changes freq and mode correct.
In contact-log-field it shows "0" in RX and TX fields.
I'm suspecting IC-7700V2.INI, the rig file in Omnirig. Just downloaded the newest rig-file from dxatlas.com.

If you se the tracelog attached in the last post, the rx and tx shows "0" in cat-string from radio/interface.

Also try the data ini file and see what happens.

Or perhaps it was a bad download and install so perhaps start again?

Have tried the IC-7700V2DATA, same problem. Downloaded ini-files serveral times.
Did allso downgrade to LOG4OM V2.31.0.0.
Installed LOG4OM and omnirig on a second pc, same issue.

Do the VFO A/B display use the same cat code or parameter as the freq-field in log?
Please, take a look at the attached image. The problem is in the red stars.. ;)

No, it's only MicroHAM usb router, Omnirig V1.20, LOG4OM 2 V2.32.1.0.
Tried on a second pc earlier today, same issue. Fresh Windows 7 installation.
Maybe the IC-7700 fw 2.2 is the problem...

Tried N1MM Contest Logger, no problems. Not using Omnirig in the config. I'm suspicious about the IC-7700V2.ini file. It may have issues with IC-7700 fw 2.2.... just my thoughts...
You can't read anything from the cat-tracelog?

Have you tried a different interface cable or swap to Hamlib to see if that works, if it does not I suspect the interface
