app-rpt with external repeater controller possible?
Is it possible to use a repeaters external controller and just use app-rpt for it's linking capabilities? I'm guessing there would be no way of avoiding the repeater id's and messages being sent out to any linked repeater nodes.
Not necessarily. We have a simple board (user-buildable project) that does that very nicely. I you have a standalone repater already hooked up to a controller this board can be put in-between them and it makes it into a very nice adjunct.

Sounds great. Where can I find more information on this board/project? Sound just like what I need for another project. On Thu, Feb 3, 2011 at 11:15 AM, Jim Duuuude <telesistant@hotmail.com>wrote:

This all started as a project for a slightly different purpose, but when given the need I realized that with very little difference, it could do this quite well. The initial prototype boards for this have a little boo-boo on them, and I really want a chance to run new boards that have the boo-boo fixed, and have the option for the board to be in either its original mode, or the new mode (which is what you want it for). The board is fully layed out but needs someone passionate about it to fund another board run (about $175.00). Then, I will announce it as a "legitimate" project (with, docs, pictures, schematics, etc). Are you interested in maybe helping with this? It will not only benefit you, but will make this available to the community in general in a reasonable manner.

This board is for when your controller has only one port or no free ports. If you have a free port, app_rpt works perfectly fine with your existing controller. Just set duplex=0 and linktolink=yes. --- TIS On Feb 3, 2011, at 8:15 AM, Jim Duuuude wrote: Not necessarily. We have a simple board (user-buildable project) that does that very nicely.

Would it make sense to use simpleusb when doing this? I've tried to use simpleusb but haven't had much luck. Is there any documentation on it? Thanks, Steve On 2/4/2011 6:17, Tim Sawyer wrote:

Yes, simpleusb is what I'm using on my nodes. What isn't working for you? -- Tim :wq On Feb 4, 2011, at 11:25 AM, Steve Passmore wrote:

I was trying to reconfigure a node remotely that had been using usbradio. I probably just didn't have something set right. I'll do a better test when I get some time. I was mainly curious if there was any documentation on simpleusb. Thanks, Steve On Feb 4, 2011 1:30 PM, "Tim Sawyer" <tim.sawyer@me.com> wrote:
