[App_rpt-users] remote re-boot via RF

[Jim]

I use a PL decoder set to an oddball tone that is hooked to the repeater 
receiver. I simply key up my radio on that tone for 5 seconds and the 
decoders output grounds the power switch then I simply key up again for 1 
second and it turns the PC back on. The decoder is completely separate from 
the node system.

I wait for it to boot and register, then I connect it to the network.
If I'm not in range, I simply get an internet connection and putty into it 
and reboot it that way. Only problem with this method is that if the PC is 
locked up, (which has never happened) then my only method is the PL method 
described above.

Aloha,
  I have a node with repeater about 15 miles away and I would like to be
able to re-boot/warm boot the node when I have issues with it via RF. It
is at my work location on their system and the have limited internet
access to it.

I was reading and saw    =cop,1       ;warm boot

Can I put this in my rpt.conf and add a number to the front of the =
that has not been used for something else then initiate a *XXX command
from the DTMF keypad and reboot the node?

Just for reference the repeater is a MTR2000 with a wireliine card with
no controller. I'm interfacing it with a DMK URI to an Asus eeePc
running Acid.

Aloha Jim NH6HI
