Hello everyone, I have been trying to get allstar to function on my micro PC this is the standard ACID install on a 64 bit system. When I run the commands simpleusb-tune-menu and run through the setup my URI device is there.. when I do F for flash toggle PTT and tone output several times) the repeater is keyed and I do hear the tones... When I run asterisk -r I do see the DTMF keys that are pressed on my radio, going into the repeater just fine... I can also key the radio from there with the susb key command... that keys up fine... When trying to control the allstar node from the public SIP connection via cell phone the commands do not respond there either... Though I am able to sign in, and sometimes hear the complete ID/connect message on the phone, I am unable to command anything like *81 for the time... sometimes the *81 works but I only hear it on occasion via phone... no idea what the issue is with that... it wont even key the repeater when it does this... The repeater is connected to allstar via arcom rc210 - 3 port controller I have been searching hi and low, but find very little in terms of instructions for setting up allstar/troubleshooting it... I am not sure if its a h/w issue or s/w if the cable was wired correctly or not... it seems like it was as the test programs control it fine... I did once hear my audio from the repeater on the cellphone sip/pstn link... it's very sporadic... either that or commands are delayed by several minutes... I have been using Linux/IRLP node for many years but this just baffles me... I do occassionaly get the error in asterisk about died with status 1 and something about mpg123/321 ... which I believe has to do with the 64 bit chip but I dont know why , could not find a solution to it... Though if I let it run for a few minutes the error goes away and asterisk -r works... The /etc/asterisk/... conf files are almost default except I set it to Full Duplex and Any Ideas?...... usbradio.conf: ; ; chan_usbradio.c configuration file ; [general] ; this has to be here and is RFU [usb] ; USB Channel Name e.g. usb or usb1, usb2, ... ; this starts the definition block for a device ; General Device Parameters hwtype=0 ; USB Sound Adapter Hardware Type ; Set to 0 for DMK Eng.
