[App_rpt-users] audio radio to internet issue

I always recommend that users start out with the simpleUSB radio interface as it proves out hardware without the complexity of SW adjustments. If you have a radio that will work this way, if it has de/pre-empashized audio and COS, PTT such as one you previously used with IRLP then it is easy to use simpleUSB. I use Alinco's with the data connector. Five wires to the DMK, audio in/out, PTT, COS, ground.

The Acid Allstar installation disk comes with USBradio as stock, the simpleUSB file is not even in the asterisk directory. It is on the installation disk in the -

/usr/src/astsrc/configs/simpleusb/ directory and needs to be copied to the asterisk directory. 

SimpleUSB installation instructions are at

http://ohnosec.org/drupal/node/193

I use simpleusb on my systems and I have set it up on others and it works well. If the hardware takes care of these things why have the SW do it. Yes it is more flexible and more techy vogue to use USBradio but it works fine without it and it is a lot less load on the prcosessor especially on systems where you have multiple nodes and marginal processing power.
So if things are just not working maybe try simpleUSB. You can always go back to  USBradio later.

    OK  If you are using packet port (discriminator) then set ctcssfrom=
    no

    and carrierfrom=dsp

    and 

    rxdemod=flat

    

    That should get IT working.

              I use FT8900 with rear packet minidim with URI DMK 

              
              so I will change

            
            ctssfrom=no/usb 

          
          carrierfrom=usb or usbinvert/dsp( I think the yaesu use cor
          low but anyway the uri work nice with ptt and audio from
          internet the problem is only the audio from my rig to internet
          is deaf)

        
        rxdemod=flat/no

             Oh and set
              ctcssfrom=no

              That way it wont be looking for a tone decoder output to
              let audio in.

                    You need the following:

                    

                    carrierfrom=usb (or usbinvert if your cor is active
                    low)

                    

                    and the rxdemod must be set to speaker or flat

                    

                    That should get tit listening to rx audio to start.

                              I think
                                  it found your adapter as you said you
                                  had audio in one direction. If not see
                                  below.

                                  

                                  Did you select the active usb device
                                  in the config utility before you tried
                                  to make changes?

                                  

                                  

                                  If the adapter is not being found at
                                  all try this....

                                  When you boot up you should see one of
                                  these initialized in the messages.
                                  After boot do -

                                  and page through and see if it found
                                  your adapter.
