Bug #10544
closedPuxing PX888K can't be read
100%
Description
I read and programmed a couple of UV5r's tonight, and an BF888. Sadly, I can not program my Puxing.
This next level Chirp looks awesome.
I was able to program all these radios with the old system.
I stepped through the process just like I did with the other radios, but did not get any indication other than the following:
Tried to read 8 bytes, but got 0 bytes instead.
Help?

Are (either of) you able to use chirp-legacy to validate your cable and radio configuration? This radio hasn't really been converted for next, but I also don't see the telltale signs of incompatibility in the debug log.
Updated by Stéphane Charbonneau about 1 year ago
I try the legacy ... The new one too and the original program from puxing and nothing goes... There no connection establsh
Updated by Dan Smith about 1 year ago
Okay, that's good data because the debug log looks like the radio is not responding to chirp. That would happen if there are driver, cable, or connection issues. With no other indication, I have to say it looks like not a chirp problem. I don't have one of these radios nor did I write the driver...

Can you get a PX888 Dan? Should I let you borrow mine?

I have a same issue.
I have tested on linux and Windows too, with three USB/tty cable.
A native install and the snap version too.
It was worked with a one year earlier version.
Updated by Dan Smith about 1 year ago
That error is an actual failure I can fix, but I need the debug log after you reproduce it. Please see How_To_Report_Issues .
Updated by Mike Williams about 1 year ago
Sorry Dan. I just updated my Linux Mint and Chirp won't launch for me today.
Updated by Dan Smith about 1 year ago
To be clear, I'm looking for the log from Balázs Petik, as that error is actionable and related to -next.

Okay, can you try this module (instructions are LoadingTestModules ) and see if it gets farther? Please include a debug log for this run either way.
Updated by Mike Williams about 1 year ago
In short: It didn't work for me, and it didn't create a debug.log
I'm hoping that Balázs Petik gets a more helpful response.
I installed the latest version of Chirp.
It runs! YAY!
I successfully downloaded a UV-5r.
I attempted to download the PX888k and it gave the same response as before.
I loaded the test module puxing_px888k.py and the Chirp background turned a funny red.
I tried to download the PX888k again which gave an Errno 5 input/output error.
I tried to get the debug.log but it wasn't an option under help.
I scanned my computer for a new debug.log but none was found.
Updated by Dan Smith about 1 year ago
Mike, it's not going to work for you because it's not addressing any problem you've reported. Your debug log is available in the help menu.
Your original report is pretty clearly a connectivity issue because it's not hearing back from the radio at all. That's why Balazs' log is useful as it shows actually talking to the radio. If you're now getting an input/output error that points to some other piece of hardware (that's an OS error not a chirp one). I can take a look if you attach your log with that error in it, but it's very unlikely that I can do anything for that error.

Thank you.
This version of puxing_px888k.py is working.

Okay, I don't see that you loaded the module in your logs. Did you download it into a working tree and run it from source? If you use LoadingTestModules it helps us make sure you're testing what we ask each time. But, if that's what you did, I'll go ahead and merge this.
