4.6. Software Installation and Settings
Install the software required for KNS operations on the host station PC and the
remote station PC, then perform the required settings.
● Host station PC
Download and install the ARHP-990 onto the PC from the KENWOOD website:
https://www.kenwood.com/i/products/info/amateur/software_download.html
Connect the PC and TS-990S using a USB or RS-232C cable. Then, turn ON the
TS-990S.
After starting the ARHP-990, make the COM port settings used to connect to the
TS-990S, network settings, optional settings, and user settings by selecting the
"Tool" menu and then "Setup" in the ARHP-990. For the setting methods, refer
to the ARHP-990 help file.
Additionally, in "Configure KNS" in the "Tool" menu, set a user account, whether
or not to use the VoIP function and others.
On the remote operation within the home LAN area, the VoIP function built into
the ARCP-990 and ARHP-990 can be used. In this case, in "Configure VoIP" in
the "Tool" menu of ARHP-990, select the audio device that is connected with an
audio cable to the TS-990, as the audio device to be used in VoIP.
Caution:
Names in the selection of the device depend on the PC. For each setting,
refer to the help file of the ARHP-990.
On the remote operation via the Internet, install the VoIP Program. If you select
to use the ARVP-10 as a VoIP program, download it from the KENWOOD
website:
https://www.kenwood.com/i/products/info/amateur/software_download.html
The ARVP-10 includes both of the ARVP-10H for the host station and the
ARVP-10R for the remote station.
