XIEGU TRANSCEIVERS

Firmware version 4.0C now supports the Xiego X5105 and G90. After uploading the 4.0C firmware an new menu option is available and you can select Xiegu mode. Selecting Xiegu will automatically turn off FT-817 mode and vice versa, the two modes are mutually exclusive.

You must have the Xiegu CE-19 interface kit which contains virtually everything you need to make the connection except for a male DB-9 connector. Take one of the 3.5mm pig-tail cables and connect the black wire to pin 5 of the DB9, the red wire to pin 4 of the DB9 and the white wire to pin 2 of the DB9. Then connect the 3.5mm to PTT CON on the CE-19 and the DB9 to the Hardrock-50's ACC jack, put the HR50 in Xiegu mode and you are all set.
