Thanks Corey

I'm just waiting to hear back from Rudy as I've requested a dedicated TG for the link.

Peter,

BM recently changed the way smart Ptt connections are configured on the master.  Trust me I just went through three masters changing them all!  Please make sure your local bm admin is aware of that and if he has any questions or needs an example to contact me, N3fe, directly and I will give him a hand.

Peter,
Yes, BM treats DMRlink as a "SmartPTT" connection. Your Master admin needs to configure the TS / TG / Radio ID.
Your BM admin should know how to do configure a SmartPTT connection. Make sure you use the term SmartPTT.

Steve, I've been testing with the latest version of ambe_audio but still
only getting audio flowing ASL>DMR, is there something that needs doing

I've attached my config files.

Thanks

Guy,
The problems we had with ambe_audio on the new version of dmrlink has
been fixed. You can do a git pull and copy ambe_audio.py to
/opt/dmrlink/ambe_audio.
I will be working on the configuration document next week. Really all
that is left is pointing dmrlink.cfg at your master and configure
ambe_audio.cfg.

As far as DMRGui, thats what I get for using tinyurl. Lesson learned. ;(
Here is a fresh link to DMRGui.zip

Hello Steve,

Sorry for the delay in answering, was overloaded with work.
Dunno if you still needed the test, but anyhow, I've tried again the
command with and without the -n switch, and also 2 times back to back
with the -n switch (if I understood correctly the test you asked
for)  and still the same results

With the -n switch, the dongle never sends back the

0AMBE3000R
Version
6100010031
Wrote: 5 bytes
a11V120.E100.XXXX.C106.G514.R009.B0010411.C0020208

we are expecting.  When the –n switch is removed from the the
command, I do receive it at the moment.

When I was making tests, I’ve checked the dongle’s serial baud rate
with “stty -F /dev/ttyUSB0” and it stated at first that the dongle
was at 460800 bauds.
I bought my ThumbDV when they came out at first, way before the new
model that is at 460800, so I knew mine was at 230400.

Even if i tried sending the command python “AMBEtest3.py -n -s
/dev/ttyUSB0” after setting the serial baud rate baud rate at 230400
with  "stty -F /dev/ttyUSB0 230400", it would not work.
Only way to ge the expected result was by removing the –n switch.

Also, the AMBEtest3.py python command with the –n switch removed
always worked, even without trying setting the baud rate  of the
dongle at 230400 before that.

BTW, I'm using the RC1 image from the links in your instructions. And
the above tests were made without doing any git pull that I was in
the posts made during the last couple of days.

On my side, I went thru all the instructions from your document, and
I'm ready for the next part about the configuration.  But I know you,
Mike and the rest of the team are working hard with bug hunting, so
please keep up the good work and thanks for everything.

Also, in regard of my initial question about DMRGui, it was because
the link for it in the files section of the DVhamswitch website sends
us on a parked domain for sale at vyous.com<http://vyous.com>, so that link is dead.
Just in case you didn't know.

73's from Guy VE2VAG

Guy,
I do not have the first generation ThumbDV. Could you try with the -n
switch and when it fails, try with the -n switch? No reboot between
tests.

Richard,
I was having the same problem as you, since I own a first generation
ThumbDV which runs at 230400 bauds.
When I removed the –n argument in the command: *python AMBEtest3.py -n
-s /dev/ttyUSB0, *it then worked for me.
So for people with first generation ThumbDV’s, the command *python
AMBEtest3.py -s /dev/ttyUSB0 *must be used.
Also, on page 3, Steve says at point 8: DO NOT edit DMRGateway.ini
UNLESS your DV is not at /dev/ttyUSB0
If you run a first gen ThumbDV, the baud rate must be changed in it
also to 230400.
And for Steve: thank you very much for all the efforts in the software
and the documents.  I went thru it all, and except for the items
mentionned up here, everything went well and I’m ready for the next
steps.
Thanks and 73s from Guy VE2VAG
