I set RTCM menu item line 12 external CTCSS to non-inverted. line13 External COR to 0 normal. The problem is audio passes into the system no matter if it has tpl tone on the incoming carrier or not. I can see the top green light (RX) on the RTCM module no matter if the carrier coming in has tone or not. I'm out of ideas on how to fix this. I want the RTCM to respond to the incoming CTCSS control line from the GM300. Any ideas on what is happening here?????

I can see and understand the advantages of Wi-Fi, but when it comes to time sensitive RTP packets, unless it's the only user of Wi-Fi, then you are going to have issues when the Wi-Fi has more users. Also, while you may setup a Wi-Fi router/access point just for the allstar node, you need to account for the other folks in your area (if any) that are already using Wi-Fi or around the same frequency that you setup the node on. Remember that bandwidth of some Wi-Fi modes are as small as 1 MHz, and will run as much as 40 MHz. If you have an Android phone, download the app called "Wifi Analyzer". You have a decent idea who else is using Wi-Fi around you. You can also download a program for Windoz called "Netstumbler" also detects Wi-Fi access points, but with better range. May I suggest you just run an Ethernet cable to it? It will save you some headaches, as well is trying to find the drivers for it for the Wi-Fi card. Allstar is just a specialized configuration of Asterisk. Asterisk will run on just about any Linux distribution. It may run on other operating systems, but I have never used Asterisk on anything but Linux. If you have an Ubuntu Desktop (or Server) version running on a laptop or desktop, you can install asterisk, and then manually enter in the programming you get from the allstarlink.org website. It's not any secret, just will take a while to do a lot of configuration changes. Some folks have done that because they have other things they are doing with Allstar and the machines that has it also does other functions. After a couple higher priority projects are completed, I will be rolling my own as well. www.ohnosec.org and allstarlink.org well help you setup ACiD, as well as assist with other configuration changes. It's really as simple as following the prompts for downloading the preconfigured "server" and "node" on your machine. ~Benjamin, KB9LFZ Allstar node 28569 On Thu, 2013-05-09 at 15:49 -0400, wa3lco at velocity.net wrote: > I am a noobie with the Allstar System. > I had a working copy of Linux Ubuntu on a machine and decided to install > the Acid install on it to simplify Allstar setup.

Especially those whom are living in condos, townhouses, apartments, dorms, barracks, an so on. While you may have Wireless QoS enabled, that does make it better, but no where as ideal as just plugging in a cable. No RF interference. QoS on Wireless does not recover packets which are lost because the receiver on the wireless access point is not able to deal with interference. Now, should they come up with another type of Wi-Fi, such as system that uses spread spectrum, and is full-duplex, then I'd be a little more warm and fuzzy about it. Wi-Fi is great, but when it comes to time sensitive packets.... not so great. Personally, anything that has an ethernet socket is plugged into a switch. Only those devices such as my phone and tablet use wireless. Don't take it as I'm saying don't do it at all, but definitely consider the facts when thinking about using Wi-Fi just because it's easier. If you must place a node someplace where it only truly practical to run it from Wi-Fi, then do so. Just remember when other 2.4GHz wireless devices, such as bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cordless phones, microwaves with broken RF seals come in the area, you may experience issues. Something from my experience. ~Benjamin, KB9LFZ On Thu, 2013-05-09 at 23:06 -0400, pete M wrote: > He can use wifi if he use our band.

I've got about a 30db headroom in signal with that kind of distance. It rivals some of the commercial grade. microwave licensed gear that I've worked with in an inexpensive package. Point-to-Point link via its proprietary MIMO technology significantly mitigated a lot of standard signaling issues in highly saturated sites. A LOT of us repeater folks use the very same technology for point-to-point links today with significant success. Think about using 5.8ghz. Lot more freedom there than 2.4ghz.

N5ZUA ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill Hurlock To: app_rpt-users at ohnosec.org Sent: Thursday, May 09, 2013 8:04 PM Subject: [App_rpt-users] RTCM COR CTCSS decode issues I have just installed a GM300 for my transceiver and I configured it to put out TPL /DPL det on the accessory plug. Signal looks OK about 2.59 volts for low and 13.5 volts for HI. I can see this change correctly when I use TPL or when I don't. I set RTCM menu item line 12 external CTCSS to non-inverted. line13 External COR to 0 normal. The problem is audio passes into the system no matter if it has tpl tone on the incoming carrier or not. I can see the top green light (RX) on the RTCM module no matter if the carrier coming in has tone or not. I'm out of ideas on how to fix this. I want the RTCM to respond to the incoming CTCSS control line from the GM300. Any ideas on what is happening here?????

It is an open collector output which saturates to A+ supply when active. It is normally used to drive an external relay or sense lead. It duplicates the function of J3-3 of the five pin logic board. When active it can source a maximum current of 250 mA. The pin has a 10 K ohm resistor pull-down to ground on the logic board. and uses a PNP transistor to switch it up to 12V. This pin does not work as an active low pin (i.e. pulling something to ground), only as an active high (that is dragging something up to +12v). If you want an active high output to drive a reed relay which has the other side of the coil to ground, this is your pin (but don't forget to check that the backwards diode is present on the coil pins).

Not sure if you mentioned if yours was a 16 channel or not. If an 8 channel, the above link lists pin 4 as a spare, and instructs that pin 8 should be used for COR active low. Since you mentioned getting voltage out of pin 4, I'm assuming yours is a 16 channel radio. Folks with an 8 channel model would not have the option you are using.

Bill Hurlock From: Bill Hurlock [mailto:bill.hurlock at cpcomms.com] Sent: Thursday, May 09, 2013 9:04 PM To: app_rpt-users at ohnosec.org Subject: [App_rpt-users] RTCM COR CTCSS decode issues I have just installed a GM300 for my transceiver and I configured it to put out TPL /DPL det on the accessory plug. Signal looks OK about 2.59 volts for low and 13.5 volts for HI. I can see this change correctly when I use TPL or when I don't. I set RTCM menu item line 12 external CTCSS to non-inverted. line13 External COR to 0 normal. The problem is audio passes into the system no matter if it has tpl tone on the incoming carrier or not. I can see the top green light (RX) on the RTCM module no matter if the carrier coming in has tone or not. I'm out of ideas on how to fix this. I want the RTCM to respond to the incoming CTCSS control line from the GM300. Any ideas on what is happening here?????

Each end point has commercial power available, but the back to back point is a total solar site. That system was using Motorola Canopies for 10+ years. Two years ago I replace all the equipment with 5g (lower gain) dish nanobridges. All four radio's have radomes on them to keep the snow out of the dishes. (One of them has significant up-tilt). I get 150Mb of throughput with an average latency of 7ms. (The Canopies were 60ms and 10Mb) As a HUGE plus my power budget went from a 10 day no sun reserve to a 25 day no sun reserve. (Batteries fully recharge in 2 days of full sun). - With my old system I averaged one outage every other year in the winter for 2-3 days (Late December or early January when the days are short and the weather bad). - I have not gone below 50% in the last two years. I have installed more of them in "easy" non-harsh areas as well.

Signal looks OK about 2.59 volts for low and 13.5 volts for HI. I can see this change correctly when I use TPL or when I don't. I set RTCM menu item line 12 external CTCSS to non-inverted. line13 External COR to 0 normal. The problem is audio passes into the system no matter if it has tpl tone on the incoming carrier or not. I can see the top green light (RX) on the RTCM module no matter if the carrier coming in has tone or not. I'm out of ideas on how to fix this. I want the RTCM to respond to the incoming CTCSS control line from the GM300. Any ideas on what is happening here?????

Right now the carrierfrom is set to DSP. I am not sure if that is correct or not. The radio (Maxon sm2544 data radio) I am using has audio noise all the time at the input when no signal is there and my audio when key my handheld and talk to it. I will check the tone issue as I believe I tried a couple of different selections and yes it did set the tone to 100 at allstar. I don?t need tone I believe as the transmitter generates it. On the receive end it is listening to a repeater that is also generating tone back if I want it. I tried changing the rxtone to that tone the repeater had as well and nothing. I will check the carrier issue and tones again though. Oh, I did unplug the URI and plug it back in as well. Even went so far as to reinstall ACID all over again. My configuration is for a remote base transmitting to a repeater so we can offer a alstar link to it if that gives anyone an idea.

Also in usbradio.conf Make sure your input logic is correct (don't use mine but here are some options) carrierfrom = ;carrierfrom=no ;carrierfrom=dsp ;carrierfrom=pp carrierfrom=ppinvert ;carrierfrom=usb ;carrierfrom=usbinvert ;carrierfrom=vox ctcssfrom=dsp Your usb dongle may be stuck. remove it for a second and plug it back in same place.

Any time the node radio is transmitting, the event happens. In my case, I touch a file on the ramdisk during transmit but it would be easy to instead turn on the GPIO. Does your system use a repeater controller? In other words, does local audio cause app_rpt to transmit? In my repeater, I have a controller that handles local audio and therefore app_rpt does not know when local users are keying.

Otherwise, every single node currently out there would have thousands of IAX2 trunks to each other... and it would be a serious mess. ~Benjamin, KB9LFZ allstar node 28569 On Thu, 2013-05-23 at 14:49 +0200, Thomas Delmonego wrote: > Hi to all! > I try to connect five repeaters (nodes) on different mountains and > provided with AllStarLink on Acid OS.

K0KN has a parallel port radio interface that uses a couple very common transistors, LED's, and resistors. Very simple, works very well. To break it down to a simple setup such as I have, you'll need one 2n3904 transistor, one 330 ohm resistor, one red LED, and however you want to solder them up. Visit the K0KN website for assembly details. in the usbradio.conf is where you will specify the TX is going to be using the parallel for radio keying, something like "pp3 = ptt". You will have to do some digging in the asterisk configs where it demands the use of a USB sound fob, after you ensure you have asterisk will output audio to your onboard sound card. I do not fully know why programmers refused to use on board soundcards, perhaps it's because they would have to load so many different drivers, adding to file size. Whereas just specifying the use of a very common USB sound FOB would be a lot easier, and quicker for one to get Allstar working. ~Benjamin, KB9LFZ Allstar node 28569 On Fri, 2013-05-24 at 12:58 +0100, James Hill wrote: > Hi all, > > > I'm new to Allstar, and have a couple of questions: > > > I've used the acid_centos many times as a base for D-STAR gateway > boxes, so I'm quite conversant with the distro.

Since you don't have Internet access, the nodes can't use the Allstar portal directory service to find the other ones. So you need to them where each other are. In the rpt.conf file, look for something like this: [nodes] ; Note, if you are using automatic update for allstar link nodes, ; no allstar link nodes should be defined here. Only place a definition ; for your locak nodes, and private (off of allstar link) nodes here. 1701 = radio at 127.0.0.1:4569/1701,NONE Let's say you have four nodes, numbered 1701-1704 (since they're "private" nodes any numbers will do). And you have them on IP addresses 192.168.1.201 through 192.168.1.204 Using one of the nodes as an example, make this section look something like this: [nodes] ; Note, if you are using automatic update for allstar link nodes, ; no allstar link nodes should be defined here. Only place a definition ; for your local nodes, and private (off of allstar link) nodes here. 1701 = radio at 127.0.0.1/1701,NONE ;Me, this node at 192.168.1.201 1702= radio at 192.168.1.202:4569/1702,NONE ;My brother Daryl at 192.168.1.202 1703= radio at 192.168.1.203:4569/1703,NONE ;My sister Darylene at 192.168.1.203 1704= radio at 192.168.1.204:4569/1704,NONE ;My other brother Daryl at 192.168.1.204 And then also look for this section: ; ** For ACID *** statpost_program=/usr/bin/wget,-q,--timeout=15,--tries=1,--output-document=/dev/null statpost_url=http://stats.allstarlink.org/uhandler.php ; Status updates Then put a semi-colon (;) in front of each statpost statment. That stops the node from trying to send it's status to/from the portal. If you want them to connect together on start up, something like this (again in rpt.conf) Define a function for permanent connection: [functions] .....blah blah blah.... Add this line: 76=ilink,13 ; Make a permanent connection to a node In the section where all the timers an such are defined add this line: startup_macro=*761701 On start up, the node will try to establish a "permanent" connection to node 1701. Do this on each of the nodes, using the appropriate numbers and addresses. Restart. -- Robert A. Poff Loganville, PA S/V Loon 1983 Hunter 34 Havre de Grace, MD.
