Look for silver pins sticking up from the board. FWIW, they're .062", and you can use female molex connector sockets to mate to them. Work just fine.

Some ISPs and cellular phone providers with data plans block VoIP ports. If customers are using VoIP phone service or other type of internet service, then ISPs with telephone and cellular phone companies won't make money from users depleting their airtime minutes. I had the same issue before I setup port forward for Allstar, so it goes along the fact your ISP is blocking port 4569 for your incoming connections. My ISP blocks my incoming and outgoing port 25, along with a few others. ~Benjamin, KB9LFZ Allstar node 28569 On Sun, 2013-06-02 at 10:24 -0500, Aaron Wardyn wrote: > Cannot Receive Incoming Connections From Other Allstar Link Nodes.

Now that I have linked my Allstar node to another Allstar node when some connects to my node from Echolink I will hear the call sign but on the other node I will hear node numbers not a call sign. How can I have the other linked node say the call sign. Example: VE3ELB via Echolink connecting to. Node: 29321 will announce VE3ELB connected. Node 29321 is linked to node 28507 Node: 28507 will announce node 123456 connected. I would like both nodes to say the call sign of the connecting station Any help will be great. Thank you.

It does not require voltage to be applied. So if your radio is supplying a voltage change by sourcing a logical hi like 5 V when cor is active and but the voltage is not grounded when "low" then the URI will not see a change. So if your radio does not pull the line all the way to ground then you could use a resistor and NPN transistor to pull the cor line low for the URI. Having said that, I'm sure the radio can be configured to give an active low output to drive the URI directly.

(LONG) Message-ID: <51B4D1D0.5050109@bdboyle.com> Well, thanks to a trade with a fellow participant (KC2VRJ, thanks Paul!) I am working with a Motorola Systel SE stand-alone repeater on the 440 band. For those unfamiliar with this box, it's a stand alone repeater, meant for local (real local) usage; it's 2 gutted GP300 HTs, a mobile duplexer, and control board in a single box, meant for interfacing to a phone line for autopatch, and is basically a plug-and-play solution for campgrounds, amusement parks, etc. in the Low Power Industrial band right above our 440 allotment. Programmed the radios with the proper RSS, and with the onboard controller into a dummy load, confirmed the thing works before smoking rosin and flowing solder. Problem is...it works well, but it IS a stand-alone device. No ID, real easy to bring up autopatch (a "*" character forces phone off hook..."#" goes on-hook), and meant for true appliance operators So, simplistically, the question becomes how to use the radios in the box for what they are, some of the circuitry (COR, RX Out, TX audio In, PTT) while bypassing the controller in the box. Turns out it was simpler than can be imagined. What I thought would work was two things: 1. Prevent the internal controller from seeing a valid COR signal, and redirecting (or using the other active HI signal, CTCSS detect, which would work since our local Coord folks require some access method besides carrier, so, CTCSS will be sufficient) that signal or using the PL detect as a "COR" for the URI. Breaking the circuit for both would essentially disable the on-board controller from ever seeing a valid signal. So, yeah, it just sits there munching on electrons from the power supply. 2. Inject non-processed mic level audio to the transmit side as close to the xmt brick as possible. It should be noted that I'm depending on the radios themselves to do the CTCSS detection (and raising a signal on one of the lines) as well as the de/pre-emphasis which simplifies the processing in the app_rpt application. And, with 6 nodes running on a 1.5gig Althon mini-tower...need to preserve some processing headroom. Anyway, turns out it's simpler than can be imagined. Just had to think about what I was looking at (and buying a magnifying work light...darn 57-year-old presbyopic eyes...). The modifications I made can be turned back (didn't cut any traces) or used with a TPDT switch to re-enable the signals to re-work with the onboard if the box is going to be used as a low-power portable repeater. It should be noted that, along with the circuit changes I made, I also built a couple of chassis-mount N Female to BNC jumpers with RG-142 to bring both RF signals out to the rear panel. This lets me us one of my higher-power duplexers (I have both a Decibel Prods and a Kathrein that are good up to about 100W vice the low-power one that was onboard...), add an amp on the xmt side, or preselectors and AR or Chip's amp on the inbound side...). So...circuitry changes to the "SRTP Phone Patch/Control Board" (and this references the SRTP schematic on page 39 of the service manual) 1. I lifted ONE leg of R73, which feeds from pin 4 of jack P3 to the base of Q10, and is in the Carrier Detect signal path. 2. I lifted ONE leg of R74, which feeds from pin 5 of jack P3 to the base of Q12, and is in the PL/DPL Detect signal path. 3. I lifted ONE leg of R107, which feeds from the wiper of the repeat audio level pot to the xmt brick. 4. I lifted ONE leg of R106, which feeds from the wiper of the telco line audio level pot to the xmt brick (essentially a mixing circuit, the back sides of both these resistors are common and then feed to an isolation amp to the xmt brick. Those are the ONLY circuit changes I made on board. Remember, the less you change things, the fewer variables you have to work with. So...where to pick up the signals I wanted to use to interface to the URI. Well, the URI has AC coupling caps on the AC side, so, normal Moto practice is to have biasing on audio lines. So first thing is to use the AC coupled audio paths on both sides. Second, using a digital meter, with the radio properly programmed, and receiving a valid signal with the proper CTCSS code, I verified that the signal went in the right direction so I could configure the sense in asterisk properly. So...used a couple hunks of belden 8451 (1pr shielded) left over from a radio studio project, and divided up the two lines to receive and transmit paths. Tied the shields together at one end (the URI end, if it must be known...:)) and hooked up the leads as follows: 1. RX audio from a test point on the circuit board labeled "RX IN". Big test pad. Easy to find. Easier to get to. 2. COR signal, active low, from Pin 5 (PL/DPL Detect) on socket P3 at the rear left of the board (front towards you). 3. Transmit audio from the URI to the radio to pin 10 on socket P4 (labeled TX+ on schematic) at rear right of the board. 4. PTT (active Low) to pin 7 on socket P4 at rear right of the board. 5. Ground to the ground connector in the center of the rear edge of the board. Connection of the DB-25 is as normal for these signals, and is left as an exercise to figure out which ones (hint...Pin 1 is PTT, etc...) Configuration of the usbradio.conf file, that worked for me (remember, the radios themselves are doing the ctcss and pre/de-emphasis, so, don't need to do it in app_rpt); if there are things I don't need here...well..that's ok...it works, so, still fiddling with it... ;440 Repeater [usbxxxxx] hdwtype=0 rxboost=1 txboost=1 carrierfrom=usb ctcssfrom=no rxdemod=speaker txprelim=no txlibonly=no txmixa=voice txmixb=no invertptt=0 duplex=1 rxondelay=0 rxnoisefiltype=0 eeprom=0 Hooked it all up, URI is blinking...and ran radio-tune-menu while watching on my shack CE6 service monitor to set the levels. What worked for me, in my config, and yours may be different, is RX voice is set at 600 (1K @3kc deviation from the SM to give 3k indication on the screen display) TX voice is set at 300 (generating internal to the tune program 1K signal to show 3K deviation on the CE6) and that's it (rest of the options are not enabled due to the usbradio configuration). Remember, not depending on the software to do any of the processing, just routing plain audio around and seeing that the pin Modifications to rpt.conf are dependent on what you want it to do. But, it works just fine with most of the standard config I use on other repeaters on my hub. So...hope this helps someone somewhere along the line. Only change I'm thinking of adding in is putting in a switch to re-connect the lifted legs of the resistors back to their connection pads so I can disconnect this from the URI and throw in my car with the mobile duplexer and take it on the road. But for now...it is working (node 27710) at low power (about 2 mile radius, low antenna), and sounds pretty good. 73 all Bryan WB0YLE 27294 etc. From kb0kzr at matthouse.com Sun Jun 9 23:31:53 2013 From: kb0kzr at matthouse.com (KB0KZR) Date: Sun, 9 Jun 2013 17:31:53 -0600 (MDT) Subject: [App_rpt-users] on-board audio Message-ID: <1297e007025ca1223ec4aa076a8ccb34.squirrel@www.ontheside.net> For bench testing / monitoring / whatever purposes, can I use on-board audio devices?

It certainly makes it easy to homebrew an interface for COS/PTT/AUX (or even use an IRLP board), but you'll still need a CM108 or CM119 USB fob to handle the audio.

Dug into the Systel with a digital meter...(it was handy and didn't want to go into the next room to get the 260; I usually like to see swinging needles rather than flipping LCD numbers...), and hitting the points on the receiver side of the board along the same connector as I was using to pick up the CTCSS (active low signal on pin 5), found the pad next (Pin 4) to it, marked on the schematic as, strangely enough, carrier detect, which in testing was an active HIGH pin with a valid carrier. Light bulb over the head time. Duh, even I get it sometimes.... So...ran another lead from carrier detect on the Systel receiver interface pin 4, moved the lead that was on the COR detect pin on the URI as a pseudo-detect inverted signal from the COR detect on the radio to its rightful place of pin 7 on the URI, new lead to pin 8...and in usbradio.conf changed the carrier detect from usbinvert to usb, ctcssdetect to usbinvert from no, restarted asterisk. Nice. Came right up. I was joking with KB2EAR on Monday night that there doesn't really seem to be any radios that you can't interface with the URI. I've even hooked up Wouxun HTs and gotten them to work (albeit with VOX...friends don't let friends use VOX, but it was to prove a point). Moral of the story: keep hacking at it. You CAN get it to work. Thinking it might be a problem on my TS830S, but you Never Know. Oh, and in investigating the input to the transmit side...Systel injects audio after what would normally have been the pre-emph circuit in the HT audio stage. So, added in some txpre-emph. Sounds A Whole Lot Better.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <002701ce682f$dea267a0$9be736e0$@thebades.net> While not directly a D2500, I do have experience with Atom motherboards over the last few years.. I use atom 1u servers for Allstar, D-Star GMSK repeater controller, my NXDN network router, Firewalls and VPN Servers, they are wonderful.. mine are just a little older than that one. The main issue I had with them is the NIC was not detected by Allstar CentOS install and would fail off retrieving files from the internet. It was a CentOS driver issue, new NIC chips not always detected by the installer but many times are 'fixed" when CentOS patches the final system with updates.. The solution I use was a USB Linksys USB300M ?? I think?? Usb network adapter that CentOS would buy into. And then once all the patching and building is done, CentOS would handle the factory NIC just fine so disconnect the USB connection and it would remap to the onboard NIC. As the CentOS ALLStar install disc changes along the way in time, and I think it has since I had this issue, it may be a non-issue for you.. Anyhow, that was the worst of it. Under Allstar I run 4 USB sound interfaces for 4 repeaters off one of them at my main site.. I think that is a SuperMicro Server using an Intel D525 board and chipset..

Whatever password you used to log into the portal with (which -can- have special characters), can *not* have any 'special' characters. No, !, @, #, $ etc... once you go to login and register your installation. Having said that, I know you're asking about that log-in specifically, but I thought I'd share my own experience. As far as the ACID installation, when it asks you the first time for a root password, make it something you can remember. Write it down on a sticky not, put it on the side of your monitor, whatever... you'll be needing that password for root access at the log-in prompt. To the general distribution: As far as root access goes, I have a little issue with that... who, in their right mind, would allow root access to the machine, via ssh? From a security standpoint, that's kinda like saying "once you're across the moat, the keys to the castle aren't needed!" My suggestion is, create a user # useradd -m [_username_] then set that user a password # passwd [_username_] and if you want that user (or more, if more users are defined) to have admin access, add them to the /etc/sudoers file. What's the /etc/sudoers file, you ask? ## Sudoers allows particular users to run various commands as ## the root user, without needing the root password. ## ## Examples are provided at the bottom of the file for collections ## of related commands, which can then be delegated out to particular ## users or groups. ## ## This file must be edited with the 'visudo' command. ## Host Aliases ## Groups of machines. You may prefer to use hostnames (perhap using ## wildcards for entire domains) or IP addresses instead. # Host_Alias FILESERVERS = fs1, fs2 # Host_Alias MAILSERVERS = smtp, smtp2 ## User Aliases ## These aren't often necessary, as you can use regular groups ## (ie, from files, LDAP, NIS, etc) in this file - just use %groupname ## rather than USERALIAS # User_Alias ADMINS = jsmith, mikem etc, etc, etc...

The setup is as follows presently, which has zero *known* EMI/RFI issues. The radio is powered with an older linear 3A regulated power supply, which a parallel connection to a 12V 18Ah battery. All leads are kept short, under two feet. The radio is kept on 5W. The computer has a 12Vdc connection, and it's presently using an ac/dc SMPS, one that can be bought on eBay for about $10. Both of these are plugged into the same outlet strip, and as stated, zero discovered EMI/RFI issues. The radio audio connections to the computer have the center conductors isolated with a 10nF cap. Just as soon as I decide to power the computer from the battery, the radio has noise across every tunable frequency. Even if I disconnect the radio completely from the node, there is noise on the radio. From what is apparent to me, the noise is coming from the computers internal power supply section, riding the power wires back to the battery, and then to the radio. I see there are plenty of EMI/RFI filters I can purchase. However, I'd like to maintain the Amateur Radio Spirit of creation for this case, so I'd like some pointers on what I should test for, and construct some EMI/RFI filters. I have seen there are common mode and differential mode chokes filters, and some filters have both kinds of chokes. I'm not really sure the difference, besides the way the components are installed in the circuit. If you find it better to talk in person, contact me via allstar or look for my phone number on the internet. ~Benjamin, KB9LFZ Allstar node 28569 From telesistant at hotmail.com Sun Jun 16 04:46:59 2013 From: telesistant at hotmail.com (Jim Duuuude) Date: Sat, 15 Jun 2013 21:46:59 -0700 Subject: [App_rpt-users] EMI/RFI issue In-Reply-To: <1371355119.1896.4772.camel@benjamin-hp> References: <1371355119.1896.4772.camel@benjamin-hp> Message-ID: Perhaps a: RadioShack?

It works pretty well, but I have an issue with it where ezstream will go to max cpu if it loses connectivity. I have to remote to the box and kill it. If that's a problem you're having (because you'd test it first) I would look at a dedicated audio codec on a second audio output point from your interface, so you don't destabilize your PC.

An issue with Allmon has been the polling interval. If set too short polls trigger before the response from a previous poll causing no data to display. If set too long Allmon is not as responsive as it could be. I discovered a javascript programing technique call long polling which has solved this problem. No mater how fast or slow your server is, Allmon will now do the right thing. This is a must have update. 2. A somewhat less important update is an orange background color for connecting nodes. App_rpt permanent connections occasionally go into Connecting status if the network drops. Sometimes users don't notice that and wonder why a link isn't working when "it shows on Allmon".

Or since there are no valid SIP peers on this setup, I could just not care, and probably nothing bad would happen. Then again, Asterisk runs as root, and its possible there are security flaws. The point was, others might have the same issue, and not know it. I raise the concern for the good of the network as a whole. If you're not using SIP, you might consider adding noload=chan_sip.so to modules.conf. I am also suggesting this be part of the standard portal-based and/or stock ACID configuration. Security by obscurity works as long as what you're securing against isn't bothering to port-scan, and is just trying well-known ports, but that isn't going to defend you against the Chinese government. Take SSH -- change it to port 222, and nearly all of the password attacks go away, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't also use strong passwords, and maybe consider disabling root logins entirely (create a separate user-account, log in as that user, and then su to root). -Matt- > Change your SIP port to something completely weird and non-standard > (from 5060).

If you can get the models with 4GB of DOM that would be best. I have modified several to use a 4GB micro-drive, which work fine ...... UNTIL, the micro-drives crap out!

It is both server and node on one machine. I do not have any other machines for my allstar node. While watching top, the CPU has yet to get busier than 0.4. It is using DSP for audio, and runs without fail. It has 12Vdc input with a standard barrel plug. Not sure what the low voltage cut-off is, but it runs fine on a SLA battery that just came from an auto charger that goes to float after bulk charging brings it up to 14.1V. The current draw varies, usually above 500mA at idle, and about 750mA when I'm talking to or listening on the node. It has a 1GHz processor, 1GB RAM and 1GB flash drive. I used what I had, but you will have space left over if you are only able to get 512MB RAM and 512MB flash. I don't remember if I am using Limey Linux for VIA or i686.

Message-ID: Hi Guys, I'm running a Simplex node, and am having trouble getting a courtesy tone when the station on the link unkeys. Everything appears to be set right in rpt.conf, but it doesn't happen. However, if I alter duplex=0 to duplex=1, it will give a courtesy tone after link unkey, and after local unkey - but the tones seem to get stuck in a loop, and I get about 8 pips in a row! I appreciate that running in duplex mode on a simplex link is far from ideal. Is it a limitation of app_rpt that courtesy tones only work with a duplex (ie repeater) setup? Any advice appreciated!

The problem I have, is when unconnected to any node. When connected, all is good - When station TXing on the link drops their TX, courtesy pip. All good. The Issue is obviously something local, as whenever a signal is RXed locally, the box responds with a courtesy pip and a CWID and then drops carrier. But then proceeds to key up numerous times (anywhere between 6 & 14 at the last count), each key up giving a pip and then dropping carrier. If I go into rpt.conf and set unlinkedct=0, it will still key up multiple times - but no tone. If I set duplex=0, the problem goes away (but I get no courtesy tones - but I still get "function complete" etc ok). Something is looping somewhere.... it's just a case of trying to find it! rpt.conf is pasted below!

If usbradio has duplex = 1 then it thinks you have a full duplex radio. You need to tell usbradio it is half duplex. By default app-Rpt defaults to full duplex settings in both usbradio and in rpt conf. Actually when duplex = X is not stated in then it is automatically in full duplex mode in rpt conf.

The only thing that seems to stop the problem, is by setting rxondelay=120 in usbradio.conf. That in itself presents a problem, as the delay switching on the RX seems to be far more than 120ms, more like 4 seconds! I could probably live with it, but John Q. Ham who happens to be passing through town and trying to use the node might have something different to say, and start badmouthing etc. One thing I have noticed is this: I connected to my node via Echolink (with rxondelay=0), on my Android cell. I put a call out via my node. Whilst my node was going through it's pip pip cycle, I noticed that the green RX icon was up on the Echolink app, but no sound was coming through. The moment my node finally pipped it's last pip, the RX icon dropped, and the Echolink app gave it's roger beep. So while it is going through it's tx pip cycle, it's also still saying it's TXing to the network. If I set the all of the courtesy tones to 0 (apart from linkunkeyct) it looks for: app_rpt.c: telem_lookup:ctx failed on Zap/pseudo-1205069161 If I comment the lines out in rpt.conf, I just get bursts of carrier with no tones. Mike wondered if it was due to the fact that I'm using vox instead of hard cor, and it's a timing issue. I'm not in a position to run hardware cor yet, as I'm not on the final radio - it's a Moto HT600 that I've temporarily pressed into service until I can find a good cheap commercial set that only has one or two channels. I'm not paying megabucks (approx $120 in the UK) for a 4ch GM-350 just to sit on a node! Here is a short vid of what it's doing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrWrEq3f6Ek Until I can get it fixed, then I'm going to have to run with duplex=0 in rpt.conf :-( Cheers all, James G0FHM From bill.hurlock at cpcomms.com Mon Jun 24 20:20:15 2013 From: bill.hurlock at cpcomms.com (Bill Hurlock) Date: Mon, 24 Jun 2013 20:20:15 +0000 Subject: [App_rpt-users] Duplex Message-ID: <8F656C03689E074C9EE70EE3343E4B841656BE10@CPNYMAIL2.cpcomm.int> How do I get the node configured so that it is in full duplex to the repeater radio.

I can make it TX by selecting F in radio-tune-menu no problem! To get the disc. out of a HT600 is going to be a bit fiddly, but I'll give it a try tomorrow. It's either that, or set it to no tone mode for the time being, till I can source a suitable radio and do it properly.

But if you're using it to decode PL and squelch it just will not work well. I'm told other motherboards (read: non-Intel) would be better. But I have about 7 of these now, not going to change. But the printer port is important to me. So I didn't need to hack the USB Fob I use pp signalling. Getting ready to add remote base to it in the coming weeks.

I've figured out I need to ground pin 15 in order to turn RX on and off. The problem is, I have a +5V signal from my radio when there is a carrier present. Can anybody point me toward an easy circuit to be able to convert the +5V to a negative in order to turn the RX on and off? If I set ppinvert, it turns the RX on when I ground the pin - so that seems to be the way to go. I've tried googling, but all sorts of stuff comes up!

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <51CB2ABF.2050800@bdboyle.com> It is so low in overhead, that for one or two radio systems, you can run it on a 5-year-old laptop. Did that for a couple years till I migrated to an old minitower that was displaced by an iMac for the better half. I reboot it every couple months just because, but, there are plenty of systems out there with bodacious uptime numbers. Picked up a couple fresh-loaded Dells at a hamfest a couple months ago; they run the software fine. Even running it on an 8-year-old IBM minidesktop with 4 gig of ram and a 1.2 gig processor. Don't overthink it or over subscribe/complicate it. Works fine on old iron up to a point. And keeps those processors processing.

In-Reply-To: Message-ID: Hi, Yes, URI's will work in a virtualized environment, with VirtualBox under Linux, at least....I've done it. I've not been following this thread closely, but, you *can* run Asterisk/app_rpt virtualized, too....But, since, by definition, a VM uses only a time-slice of the host CPU, you must be really careful in what the loading on the host (and other VM's) is. Or, you'll likely get lousy results. But, it can and does work, with care....Now, whether app_rpt needs to be virtualized is another argument entirely. I would probably argue "no" for 99% of the situations. I would guess one case where a "yes" might be viable was where you already had beefy existing PC hardware at a site and didn't want to add another box.

Seems to me, though, it's just layering another level of complexity on something that is relatively simple to set up and get working quickly without having to add in the hypervisor, hardware configuration, network interfaces, hardware assignments etc. to the mix. If your heart is set on virtualizing it, get it running stand alone so you can get through the process and work the bugs out and then move to a virtual box. That way, any bogosity that happens at that stage can be worked on without having to scratch your head whether it's centos 5.6, asterisk, app_rpt, usbconfig, usbradio tuning, or vm/xen/? etc. As for bashing IRLP, it lends itself to being almost an oxymoronic effort. That, and the closed nature and shortsightedness of some...the greed and lack of tech chops of Cameron, and the refusal of the League to recognize Asterisk as a legit linking system...and keep it out of the repeater directory (which is pretty useless in and of itself, which is a different rant...)...well...guess some still watch B&W 4:3 TV too. As for AM Stereo...I have a Kahn exciter here that does AM stereo...:) And some turntables. And ITC cart machines. And an AT&T speakerphone and box of dial phones. and a Dataphone 1200 (wow!). Nothing wrong with paleolithic technology. LOL.

Allstar will work but sometimes the audio can be chopped or stutters. It's not a fault of Allstar but the USB under the vm. I have run Allstar under virtual box for dev purposes and the more load the vm hardware is under, the worst the audio breakup... Hope fully the vm vendors with give the USB a real time option in future releases... Regards Anthony, VK2ACP From: Jonathan Weirmeir Hi, group! I'm new to app_rpt RoIP, coming from a background with IRLP. I'm wondering if anyone has ever tried virtualizing AllStar, and if so, were there any issues. Thanks!

After trying numerous different things to no avail I installed Mozilla and opened a browser so that it would have a open window to a web site I have. Since doing that it has not lost internet connections. Now the setup here is that I have a router that normally assigns an ip but to keep the allstar computer operating with a IP that I could assign forwarded ports I assigned it an ip above the range that the router would use. The allstar computer does look at the router for DNS after I found that it would not work when trying to go to the DNS of my provider. Anybody have any suggestions about what to look for so I don?t have to have a browser window open? Thanks Steve N4YZA -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
