## Questions & Answers

**Q: what driver is used afor this cable?**
A: This is an FTDI chipset, so Windows 7 and 10 already have the required driver built into the Operating System.  The only time you need to worry is if the cable uses a Prolific chipset, then the OS might not have the required driver.  Many chinese knockoff cables have a "defective" Prolific chipset and the standard driver for those won't work.  It takes an old driver.  The wise thing to do is any programming cable that is a serial interface, ensure it has an FTDI Chipset.

**Q: Is the ic-10 chip still needed to connect a kenwood  ts-440s using this cable?**
A: I would consult other sources. I am pretty sure that the Kenwood's only put out the TTL level signals.  That means you would have to install the IC-10 chips. You can find them and if your a ham, you better be able to install the chips.  It takes less than 30 minutes and a couple of screw drivers to do it.  Just get the two part numbers and find them online. They will cost you between $15 and 30.

**Q: Is the hardware compatible with windos 8 and windows 10**
A: Not sure about Windows 8, but I am running Windows 10 and it works great

**Q: I have the cable. i can't seem to have it pass tx data, and rx data. it will only control the ts-450s ptt and frequency.  please help.  thank you**
A: I only use it to control hf rig. I have external unit connected to transmit and speaker on hf rig to computer to control data transmit, and receive. I don't think it can be done with just one cable.

    Two devective cables
  

*by O***D on Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2023*

I recently added a TS-440s to my collection and added the chips for computer interfacing, and picked up one of these cables to complete the interface.  The first one would send back a bunch of garbage data until I rebooted the radio and was returned.  The second one would not get the radio to respond at all.  I found a shorted pin on the serial chip in the cable (see picture) and cleaned up the poor soldering, but the repair was ineffective and necessitated returning the 2nd one as well.I can confirm that the cables were at fault as I also have a cable with the same part number that I use on my TS-940s that also works perfectly on my TS-440s.I will be attempting a DIY cable or finding an IF-232 level shifter so I can use real RS-232.
