TCI with RF Kits RF2K amplifier

My PC has a network card dedicated to only SDR traffic.

The PC is connected to a switch and the network adapter is set to 192.168.16.1 with a netmask of 255.255.255.0

I have a SunSDR2DX with an IP of 192.168.16.2 and a netmask of 255.255.255.0

I have the Anan set to an IP of 192.168.16.3 and a netmask of 255.255.255.0

I have the RFKit set to an IP of 192.168.16.4 and a netmask of 255.255.255.0

All devices are on a common switch that has no other connections.

Essentially I have a closed network on 192.168.16.0/24 that is purely for my SDRs and the amplifier, all are wired connections.

The RFKit has to have its networking configured properly in addition to the TCI settings, I'm wondering if that isn't the underlying issue for people with this.

Be aware that Expert Electronics has changed their default TCI port in ExpertSDR3 from 40001 to 50001 (ExpertSDR2 40001).
Unfortunately the default port for TCI in Thetis is also 50001...so you have to check, that you have different ports!
Best to set it in Thetis to 50051 or some other free port.

Yeah I just changed it over to match. I don’t run the rigs at the same time.
