temperature sensor
by Scott Weis 13 Jul '11

13 Jul '11

Hi All, I am having a problem with the hot weather shutting down a repeater. I would like to know if anyone has any way of monitoring the ambient temperature in the room as well as the surface of a heat sink and then triggering an event in app_rpt when they exceeded a certain threshold. Thanks, Scott KB2EAR

Node # 2 on the air
by Lu Vencl 12 Jul '11

12 Jul '11

All, Making some good progress.. Got the second node on the air.. Couple of odd things I came across.. 1. Can't download server configuration via the portal.. I have to help it by running nodesetup.sh at the node end.. No problem though as I can still get it done. (Odd huh?) 2. Audio occasionally sounds like it is motorboating. This is not packet loss as even the ID sounds like it is slowing down and pulsing.. It almost sounds like an IRQ conflict. I tried to change USB ports, turned off all unused devices such as serial ports, parallel ports etc.. It clears up on the next transmission of audio, or sometimes during the transmission.. Any thoughts?

Flowchart of app_rpt.c?
by Tony KT9AC 11 Jul '11

11 Jul '11

Hello, I've been trying feverishly to modify app_rpt.c to add customizations and would like to see if there is a flowchart of how the pieces work together. I don't speak Asterisk and am increasingly becoming frustrated. My goals are: 1) Muting or changing Main TX PL when CW ID'ing without any input signals. 2) Ability to drop the Main TX following a link/remote unkey. I have a remote base onto another repeater's output; could use althangtime for this? 3) Ability to have local repeater audio override or mute any incoming remote/link audio. I hate that they mix, but understand this is a conference-call style phone system we're dealing with. 4) Ability to use a local-PL/link-PL style setup in a large linked system. I'll do my best to code and test; but am ready to go back to circuits and solder if these are unreasonable. I've entered change requests in Mantis, but never got any results. Thanks, Tony

Incorrect time
by Lu Vencl 11 Jul '11

All, For some reason my node is announcing the incorrect time.. (8 hours behind) even though the server time is correct and I have a -5 UTC offset.. Any known issues or thoughts? Lu KA4EPS

Beagle Board XM RTC
by Ken Leisten 09 Jul '11

09 Jul '11

Hello, I'm using a BBxm and LOX interface combo. I noticed that the BBxm does not have a backup battery for the real time clock. It is an option. Do I need to have the RTC backed up by battery or does Asterisk/app_rpt get its time from an NTP server? Are most people running the BBxm without the battery? Thanks, Ken

Trying to get parrot mode (parrot once) working.
by Steve Gladden 09 Jul '11

09 Jul '11

I'm trying to get this to work with no results yet.. On a full duplex (repeater) USB uri I'm on version 0.282 I am node #27298 4 day camping trip middle of a forest! I'm on 3G EVDO Internet and sharing it with some 50 hams out here :-) Under my node stanza pertaining to parrot mode I have: [27298] parrotmode=0 parrottime=1000 and under functions I have: [functions27298] 42=cop,55 I'd expect to be able to dial *42 or *4227298 and get to be able to record & playback what is recieved. But I see no action at the console just seems to ignore it. DTMF is OK also tried inputting the command right at the console. Am I missing something ? I'm woring off the instructions at: http://ohnosec.org/drupal/node/167 Thanks!! Steve Michigan Broadband Systems Inc.

Another newbie question from Australia
by Michael Carey 09 Jul '11

09 Jul '11

Hi Everybody, I've finally got around to setting my transmit and receive audio levels today. It was straightforward and now things sound a whole lot better on transmit... except for this one strange thing... every now and then, and it appears to be random, transmitted audio seems to break into (for lack of a better description) a robotic cycon-style voice. It affects both incoming voice and also telemetry tones. My node is using a DMK URI and it's plugged into it's own USB socket. Any idea what is going on and where I should look to fix it? Michael.

Access to parallel port failing
by Steve Gladden 07 Jul '11

07 Jul '11

If I try to use any parallel port pins be defining them in usbradio.conf I get kernel: ppdev0: no associated port! Maybe because the pport is turned off in the bios (duh!) Figured that out just as I was writing. Compaq rackmount server.. needs a boot cd to access bios settings. *DONE* Michigan Broadband Systems Inc.
