These are the virtual COM port driver (VCP) and the D2XX API driver.  Since the FTDI VCP driver is built into the Linux kernel we will use it.  #FTDI cable from the "remote" port on the Icom to the USB port on the PC.#In console type "lsmod |grep -i ftdi" look for: usbserial              53248  1 ftdi_sioIf not seen, linux doesn't recognize the cat cable In Linux, the VCP drivers will appear as /dev/ttyUSBx. How to verify the built in COM port: dmesg | grep -i FTDIThe output on the terminal window should contain the following: (lots of output, look for specifics) [    1.905014] usb 1-1.1: Manufacturer: FTDI [  16.413787] usbcore: registered new interface driver ftdi_sio [  16.413796] usbserial: USB Serial support registered for FTDI USB Serial Device [  16.413826] ftdi_sio 1-1.1:1.0: FTDI USB Serial Device converter detected [  16.414253] usb 1-1.1: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0Now lets test to see if the computer is receiving cat data from the rig.  Type this: cat /dev/ttyUAB0When you tune the VFO on the rig itself, you should see a bunch of ascii characers appear in terminal as output from cat - that means info is flowing from the rig to the computer via the FTDI cat cable.  good.Running fldigi as root the first time is recommended until everything working before worry about correcting permissions.  Use this command to enable rig control before running fldigi sudo adduser $USER dialoutto configure your IC-7600 to accept audio from the USB interface, decide whether your digital mode operation will employ DATA 1 mode (D1), DATA 2 mode (D2), DATA 3 mode (D3), or will be accomplished with DATA mode not in use.

Use caution when using a non-Icom microphone.
