[App_rpt-users] Node time out

[Steve Mahler]

David:

Investigate this,  it may help ...

; RECEIVER INACTIVITY TIMER for LINKED NODES
;lnkactenable = 0                       ; Set to 1 to enable the link 
activity timer. Applicable to standard nodes only.
;lnkacttime = 3900                      ; Link activity timer time in 
seconds.
;lnkactmacro = *5100                    ; Macro to execute when link 
activity timer expires.
;lnkacttimerwarn=/var/lib/asterisk/sounds/KF5VH-AS1/ann60        ; 
Message to play when the link activity timer has 30 secs left

located in rpt.conf ... when enabled it seems it works like ... after 
linking, when the local rx gets a signal, timer linkacttime is reset,  
if the local rx remains idle and the timer reaches   30 seconds  then  
say lnkacttim, if the timer reaches 0 then execute   lnkactmacro   which 
should be a disconnect.  Was probably designed for driving out of 
coverage but works to keep the link up as long as you keyup at least 
once an hour (just thump it).
