They have to be defined somewhere don't they? How else would you set the pins to out0 or out1?

8401=cop,61,pp2=0 8411=cop,61,pp2=1

You do not need to set-up output pins in usbradio unless you are using them for PTT or COR etc. The pins float when not in use and go to ground when active/on. You may need to invert the logic and buffer to switch higher current levels. ...mike/kb8jnm

Nope.

If I set pp2 = out0 I read about 100 ohms

If I set pp2 = out1 it reads open

Entering *8411 or *8401 yields no change. (from rpt.conf 8401=cop,61,pp2=0 8411=cop,61,pp2=1)

The node plays back 2 beeps

Watching the CLI I see --Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-123418903' (number changes each time)

Commands are being sent from IAXRPT and from a locally connected radio

Follow this Jamey... http://www.qsl.net/k0kn/irlptoallstar.html

Your info should be in either usbradio.conf or simpleusb.conf

Just read through it and you'll get it.

I use this method also.

Since I have the node computer here at house for a day or 2 instead of at the tower site I decided I would go ahead and configure the I/O for something I have in mind in the future. I seem to be having some issues though. When I enter *8401 from IAXRPT, I get back "beep beep" but I don't see a state change with my DMM across pin 2 and ground

In BIOS, the parallel port is configured at address 378 and IRQ7 and in EPP mode.

I have this in the RPT.CONF:

[functions27981]

<clipped for brevity>

80=status,1

81=status,2

8401 = cop,61,pp2=0

8402 = cop,61,pp3=0

8411 = cop,61,pp2=1

8412 = cop,61,pp3=1

901=cop,33 ; Local telemetry output enabled

902=cop,34 ; Local telemetry output disabled

903=cop,35

And I have this in SIMPLEUSB.CONF:

; SimpleUSB configuration

;

[general]

pp2=out1

pp3=out0
