Did you look at the proxy.log in /var/log/dvswitch?

What I cannot get to work is RX Monitor audio through my computer speakers when by pressing the RX Monitor button on the dashboard which turns green.  No audio is heard from QSO's.  I did look at the dashboard config.php file and the setting RXMONITOR = "YES".

Is there another setting I am missing or any ideas?

Reloading password

Pete Fierro
 

  Hey guys

    Any reason as to why I need to keep reloading my password in brandmeister selfcare hotspot security once in awhile?

    Is there a character entry limit I may have exceeded?

    Running ASL to DMR bridge on a rpi2.

Thanks

Re: P25 to DMR/XLX

Kevin N9OIG
 

Steve I had DVSwitch all working for my IPSC2 server P25 to DMR all works prefect. We just added an XLX reflector connection in and DMR passes to XLX and YSF both ways DMR and YSF passes to P25 correctly but P25 comes up the callsign  shows then ysf side just drops. I tried connecting the DVswitch directly to the XLX reflector I can get it to connect but I connect get it to specify a module. I still don't know if this will even solve my P25 to YSF issue.
Ill include the MMDVM Bridge stanza

[DMR Network]

Enable=1

Address=66.42.113.132

Port=62030

Password=passw0rd

ReloadTime=60

Slot=1

TG=6

Base=64000

Relink=60

Debug=0

Id=3155059

UserControl=1

 

Options=XLX:4001
Re: Unable to connect to Brandmeister using HBlink #hblink

Edited

I think the issue is if you are configured for repeater (dual slot) and have the transmit and receive frequency the same (simplex) BM will not allow the connect.
This is to block misconfigured duplex hotspots.

Brandmeister don't allow logins from HBLink and actively drop them, at least on the masters I have tried.

Hi ve6gcd 
may i know what is that mean ? "As soon as I changed it to the repeater frequency pair in HBlink I was able to get in" ,i have same problem and i sure i set the same password between BM Self card and hblink

<Analog_Bridge> <-> <Analog_Bridge>

This creates a transcoder. In your case P25 <-> DMR or whatever mode you are running on XLXD.

/usr/local/dvs.
The install adds that directory to the path. Logout / login would also have it take effect.

Re: New Install of DVSwich

Thanks Steve

I'll give it a try..I have up to 12 channels of vocoding available if needed, I was hoping to just use the DV 3003 USB  I have a couple of them That gives me 2 channels each. I also have a 6 channel vocoder that I can use if needed.
It's located at another IP address , Both the XLX and the new install of DVSwitch will be sitting at Vultr in Chicago after I get the old configuration moved over.

That's why I wanted to do the Dstar at this time, I thought it would be better to do it all at once.
I think I understand how it's done ?
I believe I saw where I can direct DS to the ip address of the vocoder in the config files, I have the vocoder ambed setup to point at the vultr IP and DVSwitch when I have it configured. Wish me luck!!

Again I appreciate your knowledgeable help and wonderful product and support!

So, D-Star is going to require a transcoder. We use 2 instances of Analog_Bridge to create the transcoder. It will look like this:

D-Star Reflector <-> ircddbGateway <-> MMDVM_Bridge_DS <-> Analog_Bridge_DS <-> Analog_Bridge_DMR <-> DMR Master

MMDVM_Bridge_DS and MMDVM_Bridge_DMR are a single instance of MMDVM_Bridge
Analog_Bridge_DS and Analog_Bridge_DMR are two instances of Analog_Bridge
Analog_Bridge_DS is configured for D-Star This will require access to a hardware Vocoder
Analog_bridge is configured for DMR This can use the md380-emu

You could replace DMR with NXDN or YSF. (add the gateways)

Yes that is correct, I'm using MMDVM_Bridge to combine the 3 modes, YSF, DMR C4FM and NXDN.   P-25 is there too but it's Bridged differently

Rick,
DVSwitch is the umbrella all our software is under. I assume you are using MMDVM_Bridge to combine the 3 existing modes. Once I understand what you are doing, I can try to help you add D-Star

I'm wanting to DMR , C4FM and NXDN to transcode to Ambe at the XLX server if thats possibl;e, The XLX and DVSwitch will be at the same VPS , but the vocoder will be at my physical location with the vocoder,
If possible I want to map the two, If thats possible with DVSwitch.

I'm relatively new with Ambe and know more than I ever imagined I would want to know about. We have several Dstar users in the area that would like to blow the dust off of their radios, We built an MMDVM linked repeater system that covers the same area as our Analog network..That's how we have been using DVSwitch for the last 4 years, We want to now use the vocoders to convert the NXDN, DMR and C4FM to the Ambe XLX . and wanting to use DVSwitch, if possible to do all of the heavy lifting between servers.

DVSwitch has already been configured and working flawlessly for 4 years..Now were wanting to transcode Dstar into the mix...Sorry for any confusion...I am interested in analog..But not untill I get past the ambe vocoding curve.

Hi Steve

I have a DV3003 and want only to use it Ambe to DMR or Ambe to YSF, Does it still build in Analog Bridge?
Analog to digital will come later , I see where ASL is used but would prefer not to use it if possible.

Is there a working Ambe to digital config file I could look at to see what and how it should look? Just trying to wrap my head around it...I'm better with hardware than software but with a a visual and a poke with a sharp stick, I can typically work my way through it

Thanks you for your patience and help.

Very nice...Smooth build ! I have my XLX reflector on this VPS as well but my transcoder is at another IP address..How would this map through to the transcoder to DVswitch?
Didnt  find the dashboard?  May have overlooked it?

after the build I'll direct my BM TG to the XLX , The ambe is all that see's the trancoder..
Just not sure how DVSwitch should map for transcoder ...If it does at all?? .127.0001 will map to the XLX to DVSwitch.
I've not done this yet. The XLX has only been used for Dstar up to now.

Hi Mike

but I also did an install to vultr/cloud with buster this morning, with no errors

Did you follow what Steve had posted to this thread earlier?  If so did you reboot after the update & upgrade?
