Re: setting up MMDVM_Bridge and Analog_Bridge #mmdvm_bridge #analog_bridge

Depends on how you're starting the service. If you're using the systemd scripts, this is how I would do it:

Make a copy of the existing AB systemd script, make it identifiable as a different script

cd /lib/systemd/system
cp analog_bridge.service analog_bridge-dstar.service

Then, edit the copy with your editor of choice

pico analog_bridge-dstar.service

And edit the ExecStart line to load up the configuration for the instance you want. I'll assume you're doing the dstar config

ExecStart=/opt/Analog_Bridge/Analog_Bridge /opt/Analog_Bridge/Analog_Bridge_DStar.ini

Save and exit the editor. Then update the systemd files

systemctl daemon-reload

Then star the new service

systemctl start analog_bridge-dstar.service

You can do the same for the DMR instance as well, just change the names and files where needed.

Hi guys:
Its me again, This time i am assisting a friend of mines in setting up DStar to DMR link i did some reading and want to make sure i understand the instructions and doing it correctly.
this is what i have so far.

Can someone take a look and let me know if I'm on the right track or If I am Missing anything?
Question How do i go about running the 2 Instances of Analog_Bridge?
