OK so I got a node #, PC, repeater, URI, and I'm burning a ISO as we speak.
From my rudimentary understanding it looks like a lot of the node configuration is done online and the first time I update my PC I will need to do a manual update.
So if I want to also use app_rpt as a controller I'm confused as to where I set the important stuff, such as: ID Time out timer Code to shut the transmitter off in the event something goes wrong. PL tones encode/decode I assume I must have to bring up a script and manually edit it? Any good write ups in the internet about this? I'm getting pretty excited about this. If I can get this one repeater on the air. I have many more repeater that I want to link together for a multicast system. I'm sure I'll have even more questions then.

Some of that can happen on the portal. On the menu look at Node... Node configuration. What you can't set there must be set up by editing the configurations files. The two files where the things you mention are /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf and whatever channel driver you use (/etc/asterisk/simpleusb.conf or /etc/asterisk/usbradio.conf). -- Tim :wq On Sep 24, 2013, at 8:25 AM, Robert Newberry <N1XBM@amsat.org> wrote:

Thanks Tim, I checked the allstar link site and checked the section you mentioned. I also read up on simpleusb and usbradio on ohnosec. I'm going to attempt a install tonight and see how it goes.

Well software seems to installed without a hitch. The URI green light is flashing and I get a "test login" prompt. I assume this is where I type root for login and my password I created. So I guess next I need the radio connected and the levels set. Where can I read more about adding lines to definitions? I'm reading up on status reporting and adding two lines to /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf: Is this as simple as being logged in and entering that line and adding the info to the bottom of the file?
