Aaron, N3MBHForum AdministratorDepends on what you are trying to do. There is the settings editor in the module itself for basic settings which get saved to the database. You could edit the module’s build_config.php file and hard code extra variables not included into the PHP array. Or if you’d like to have the location section set in the SVXLink.conf file that feature is in the 2.2.x code, but still working to clean up stuff with DB changes before you’d be able to do a clean build.

Aaron, N3MBHForum AdministratorHello Michael,
Did 2.1.1 make any different with the issue you mentioned? I think some of the latency issuesAs for the beginning of audio getting cut off. That does seem to happen with some setups. Form what I’ve heard this has to do with SVXLink closing the audio card when not in use. With the most recent release we are told there are two new config variables that could help with this. This is in the 19.x verison of SVXLink which we are currently testing in the 2.2.x code…still in development They are suppose to fix the startup dropped audio problems and possibly some of the other random dropped audio. Those are referenced below. I am making some fairly substantial backend changes at the moment to add extra features, so I hope to test these soon.
AUDIO_DEV_KEEP_OPEN (see man svxlink.conf)
ASYNC_AUDIO_ALSA_ZEROFILL (see man svxlink)73,

Aaron, N3MBHForum AdministratorLet me know if you can get in as the pi user. I believe it still may be present in the 2.0.0 image. We’ve removed it for security in newer versions. That may give you a back door to reset the root possibly.
Also I would check your SSH client and make sure you are not having any possible issues with that. Maybe a conflicting known hosts key or something.

Aaron, N3MBHForum AdministratorJeff,
You will need to modify this PHP class file. It can be located at: /var/www/openrepeater/includes/classes/SVXLink.phpSearch for this line in the file. There are two occurrences and should be around lines 227 and 298:
‘SHORT_IDENT_INTERVAL’ => $this->settingsArray[‘ID_Short_IntervalMin’]
and replace with this:
‘SHORT_IDENT_INTERVAL’ => $this->settingsArray[‘ID_Short_IntervalMin’],
‘IDENT_ONLY_AFTER_TX’ => ‘4’One of these occurs in the repeater logic section and one in the simplex logic section. This would cover both use cases. Make sure that you add the comma at the end of each first line as it is a php array and you are adding an element after that line where it didn’t have one before. The code will later convert this into the INI format that you see in the standard svxlink.conf file that you would expect to see. Not sure why the value needs to be 4, but that is what is in all the examples I have found of it online and it seems to work.
Hope that helps.

Aaron, N3MBHForum AdministratorHave you pulled the TX side off the duplexer and just went straight to a dummy load just to rule RF out? Worth a try. I have had RF get into the Pi and audio lines before and cause havoc.

Aaron, N3MBHForum AdministratorI am not familiar with this radio, but if it doesn’t have and external pin for this then you will need to modify the radio to add a control pin/line. Does the radio have an RX LED that you can pull COS from?

Aaron, N3MBHForum AdministratorThe IDENT_ONLY_AFTER_TX only affects the short ID. If set then the repeater will only identify with the short IDs when there has been recent activity. The Long IDs are unaffected by this.
I am incorporating UI for this into 2.2.0. If you are trying to hard code it or test it temporarily in conf file then it has to be set to “IDENT_ONLY_AFTER_TX=4”. Not sure why, but that’s the examples that I’ve found on it.

Aaron, N3MBHForum AdministratorOr a ground loop of sorts.

Aaron, N3MBHForum AdministratorJeff,
Received your audio file and sent it on to Dan and Joe to check out. What type of radios are you using. Are you or have you tried running the transmitter into a dummy load directly. To me it almost sounds like an RF issue getting back into the audio.73,
