Hello everyone,
I have been trying to get allstar to function on my micro PC this is
the standard ACID install on a 64 bit system.
When I run the commands simpleusb-tune-menu and run through the setup
my URI device is there.. when I do F for flash toggle PTT and tone
output several times) the repeater is keyed and I do hear the tones...
When I run asterisk -r I do see the DTMF keys that are pressed on my
radio, going into the repeater just fine... I can also key the radio
from there with the susb key command... that keys up fine...
When trying to control the allstar node from the public SIP connection
via cell phone the commands do not respond there either... Though I am
able to sign in, and sometimes hear the complete ID/connect message on
the phone, I am unable to command anything like *81 for the time...
sometimes the *81 works but I only hear it on occasion via phone... no
idea what the issue is with that... it wont even key the repeater when
it does this...
The repeater is connected to allstar via arcom rc210 - 3 port controller
I have been searching hi and low, but find very little in terms of
instructions for setting up allstar/troubleshooting it...
I am not sure if its a h/w issue or s/w if the cable was wired
correctly or not...
it seems like it was as the test programs control it fine...
I did once hear my audio from the repeater on the cellphone sip/pstn
link... it's very sporadic... either that or commands are delayed by
several minutes...
I have been using Linux/IRLP node for many years but this just baffles me...
I do occassionaly get the error in asterisk about died with status 1
and something about mpg123/321 ... which I believe has to do with the
64 bit chip but I dont know why , could not find a solution to it...
Though if I let it run for a few minutes the error goes away and
asterisk -r works...
The /etc/asterisk/... conf files are almost default except I set it to
Full Duplex and
Any Ideas?......

; chan_usbradio.c configuration file
;
[general] ; this has to be here and is RFU
[usb] ; USB Channel Name e.g. usb or usb1, usb2, ...
; this starts the definition block for a device
; General Device Parameters
hwtype=0 ; USB Sound Adapter Hardware Type
; Set to 0 for DMK Eng. URI, or USB sound adapaters
; modified using the instructions from usbfob.pdf.
; Set to 1 for DingTel/W9SH modified usb adapters.
duplex=1 ; Connected Radio Device Duplex Capability
; 0 = Simplex (PTT / Release to Listen)
; 1 = Duplex (simultaneous Tx and Rx)
eeprom=1 ; 1 = Indicates that an EEPROM internal to the radio
; adapter and cable is expected.
; 0 = no warning message if no EEPROM found.
; Receiver-Related Parameters
rxboost=0 ; Rx Audio Boost
; 0 = 20db attenuator inserted,
; 1= 20db attenuator removed
; Set to 1 for additonal gain if using a low-level
; receiver output.
rxctcssrelax=1 ; Rx CTCSS Decoder Criteria Relax
; reduce CTCSS talkoff from radios w/o CTCSS Tx HPF
; Set to 1 for Amateur and FRS radios.
carrierfrom=usb ; Carrier Detect Source
; Options - no,usb,usbinvert,dsp,vox
; no - no carrier detection at all
; usb - via USB radio adapter COR connection
; usbinvert - same as above but inverted polarity.
; dsp - from RX noise using dsp methods
; vox - voice activated via RX audio
ctcssfrom=no ; CTCSS Decoder Source
; Options = no,usb,dsp
; no - CTCSS decoding, system will be carrier squelch
; usb - CTCSS decoding using input from USB adapter
; usbinvert - same as above but inverted polarity.
; dsp - CTCSS decoding using RX audio in DSP.
; rxdemod option must be set to flat for this to work.
rxdemod=flat ; Rx Audio Source Type from Radio
; Options = no, flat, speaker
; no - RX audio input not used
; flat - source is un-filtered discriminator signal
; speaker - source is filtered, de-emphasized audio
; Transmitter-Related Parameters
txboost=1 ;Set to 1 to fix the 6db down audio bug in "voice" mode
txprelim=yes ; Tx Audio PreEmphasis and Limiting in software
; no - Audio is not pre-emphasized and limited.
; for application to radio microphone input
; yes - Audio is pre-emphasized, limited and filtered
; for direct connection to an FM modulator
txtoctype=notone ; Transmit Tone Turn Off Code method:
; Options = no,phase,notone
; no - CTCSS tone encodes up to tx carrier drop
; phase - encode reverse phase before tx carrier drop
; AKA ("reverse burst") before unkeying TX
; notone - drop tone, wait and then drop carrier
; AKA ("chicken burst")
txmixa=composite ; Tx Mix Output Channel A (Left) Output Type
; Options = no,voice,tone,composite,auxvoice
; no - Do not output anything
; voice - output voice only
; tone - CTCSS tone only
; composite - voice and tone
; auxvoice - voice output for monitoring
txmixb=no ; Tx Mix Output Channel B (Right) Output Type
; See txmixa above.
invertptt=0 ; Invert PTT
; 0 = ground to transmit, 1 = open to transmit
; This is the collector lead of the 2N4401 transistor
; on the modified usb sound adapter.
; CTCSS-Related Parameters
; These will be ignored and my be omitted if CTCSS is not in use
txctcssdefault=88.5 ; Tx CTCSS Default Encode
; Encodes this tone if no other tone in use.
rxctcssfreqs=88.5 ; rx ctcss frequency. this must be in the tone table.
txctcssfreqs=88.5 ; tx ctcss frequency. any frequency is permitted.
