Ramesh, This would require a code change to app_rpt.c to execute a program when a connect or disconnect occurs. Steve WA6ZFT Ramesh Dhami (VA3UV) wrote:

Hi Folks;

Does anyone know how to trigger a script or macro once an app_rpt connection has been established / disconnected? (similar to the irlp custom_on and off script)?

With Scott's help, I have been trying various configurations over the past week; the latest config' is with the irlp board as the 'master' interface between the PC and the repeater controller and app_rpt connected to the rtpDir bridge.

IRLP allows one to turn the aux outputs on and off (through custom_on and off), further it also 'touches' a file $LOCAL/active (from memory.... I'm on the train!). You can then look for this file in other scripts to determine whether the node is active or not.

Creating that file is no big deal.... just need to figure out a hook into app_rpt to signal when a connection is active, and when the node is idle.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Ramesh.
