With this check, CLI> core show channels, the out put is 0 active channels and 0 active calls. This could be caused by several things: 1. Incorrect polarity on modular cable from FXS board to TX port on ARIB. Try a differenct cable which swaps the red (ring) and green (tip) conductors. 2. Receiver port on FXS board swapped with transmitter port. Try swapping the cables on both ports and see if the red LED goes off after a few seconds. 3. Incorrect COR polarity. Does changing the COR polarity switch on the ARIB cause the red led to extinguish? > > With another check on the CLI> rpt stats 2059, I get all the information concerning the request. > > I'm really in need of help and trying my best to understand how the system works.

But no connection to other nodes, Yes , I do have UDP 4596 port forwarded You probably don't have auto node update script installed, so you have to manually specify the connections. You can try putting the following line in [nodes] section: 2010=radio at 72.214.24.37/2010,74.214.24.37 This should allow you to connect to me if you have used the default configuration files, and set the node number to 2059 in extensions.conf and rpt.conf accordingly. Before attempting to connect, please verify the following-- Your current ip address as known by Allstar link is: 74.237.185.207 If this is not correct, you need to make sure you have a dynamic DNS update client running to update allstar to your new ip address ( I thenk you mentioned your ISP uses dynamic IP addresses if I recall correctly), and wait an hour or so for it to propagate. > > 99=cop,4 the reference tone has no play back audio nor does it keys the radio. There's no reason why this should not work, unless it is in the wrong stanza. This is under the [functions] stanza and not the [link-functions] stanza, correct? Also recieving warning that file.c:1089 waitstream_core: Unexpected control subclass '13' The above warning can be sefely disregarded. > > Anyway, I think i'm getting close please advise.

I have run up against what I think is a permissions issue of sorts. I did have everything running briefly when Asterisk was set up to run under root access, but really want to avoid that if possible. The chan_usbradio driver errors when claiming the (usb) hid interface from the kernel. Apparently, it's getting an error at what would be line 791 in the chan_usbradio.c source code. Which then results in a call to 'usb_detach_kernel_driver_np', on line 793, in an attempt to detach the kernel interface, where it ultimately fails. I've tried a couple simple approaches to resolve this, like setting the dsp and usb device to have asterisk as their owner/group and also set permissions (with '666') for the devices. I would look at modifiying udev.rules and PAM configurations, but at this point, I'm clueless as to what is conflicting with the hid interface for the usb soundfob. Whew! Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

To get up and running quickly I was thinking of using two mobile radios + a duplexer (a setup like the Motorola GR300 repeater, minus the crappy controller). When I look at all of the newer radios I own they all have a 6-pin DIN jack on the back often labeled "DATA" as it's intended to connect to a TNC for packet radio. A further look shows that the pins in this jack are all the right ones (COR, PTT, audio in, and two types of audio-out). I was wondering if anybody has attempted to hack together a simple working duplex system by just tapping into two mobile radios via this 6-pin connector? There's two types of audio available on that connector as far as I can tell, one suitable for 1200bps packet and the other for 9600. It looks like the "1200" pin carries de-emphasized audio, and the 9600 carries non-de-emphasized audio (discrimator direct output). As far as I can tell either one of these would work with the radio interface cards available.

They will also work great on the app_rpt program, which is a excelent confirguration to use. I will be configuring my two GM300 shortly to finally take advantage of the full duplex system offered by the app_rpt program/hardware. As far as your 6 pin din some do not deliver enough audio on the output. So It depends on the radio in use. Most likely when in use you would use 1200 bps. The GM300 has 16 pins and depending if you have the 8 or 16 channel the more pins are programmble for what signals you need to connect up the app_rpt program that run the hardware.

I have a main ID file that plays a longer "Welcome to ..." message and then a tail file that just says a quick call sign. However it seems to want to play them both when the timers are both due, and the tail message is unnecessary if the main ID was played already.

I'm figuring things out as I go along here. So far this is pretty cool! In rpt.conf the idtalkover parameter isn't strongly documented. My guess at it's function is to play a morse code ID underneath the repeated audio if a long-winded user has the repeater keyed up and the ID timer expires completely. So, I set idtime=6000 and then I held the receiver open for well in excess of 6 seconds, but it did not play any morse code I under the audio. I tested several cycles transmitting >6 seconds and it always plays the ID file in tail but never ID's when the timer expires during a transmission. Could somebody enlighten me either to what this parameter really does or show me if I'm using it incorrectly?

It cannot be set sooner than this. The idtalkover parameter plays a morse id if a user keys up while the normal idrecording is playing. It basically kills the voice output and starts up a morse id instead. You might want to take a look at politeid. Politeid will play a voice id message when it is within the politeid time setting. Politeid has minimum time of 30 seconds. Mark Hagler wrote: > One more question... I'm figuring things out as I go along here.

If I key up the receiver while the ID message is playing it plays the morse ID immediately so that functions exactly as advertised.
