Re: APRS with KAMXL

#37516

Missed this originally.? Viewing online in 开云体育 only showed "Rob," then <show quoted>.

I don't think the Simply(KISS) inside the XML is the problem.? The protocol will still be KISS, but after the TNC is initialized.
Lynn can verify.

I believe the issues is that??groups.io web formatting and "Copy/Paste" action changed the "dashes" in my comments to a different symbol.
The text between  are comments and need to be formatted with the exactly characters as shown.
You could eliminate them (best option) or put them on their own line and change the characters.?

BTW, you are editing the XML after you close the program?? Pretty sure you are since the parsing failed.

Re: APRS with KAMXL

True, but the latest request was to be able to "put" the KAM XL into KISS mode and exit KISS mode when APRSIS32 starts and stops.

To accomplish this option you need to choose between:
1. Using <OpenCmd> and <CloseCmd> commands in the APRSIS32.XML file?
? ? These commands are specific to the hardware TNC in use.
? ? There are a few examples on the WIKI, but Lynn cannot cover all makes and models of hardware TNCs that have exited.
2. Setup a script file that will
? ? a) Properly configure the serial interface to the hardware
? ? b) Send the proper commands over THAT serial port to ENABLE KISS mode on the specific hardware TNC
? ? c) Use a Simply(KISS) port as the port type in APRSIS32?
? ? d)??Send the proper commands over THAT serial port to DISABLE KISS mode on the specific hardware TNC

Number 2 seems easier in Linux in my opinion, because the COMM port is just a file in /dev.
It is still "fairly easy" in WIndows with the enhanced scripting of PowerShell (not old command line).

I opened the APRSIS32.XML file in Notepad and made those changes as above after eliminating the other Open and Close commands. I put a blank line before and after these commands for clarity. This was in the section starting with:

<RFPort Name="KAM XL">

When I started APRSIS2 it acted the same as before.? However there was an error message behind the APRSIS32 screen that read:

Primary Configuration Error, Recovered From - Safe

I'm assuming that if APRSIS32 discovers an error it reverts to the safe file in the directory and overwrites APRSIS32.XML with the safe file.

Going back into APRSIS32.XML the new commands were gone, hence my above assumption.

I noted that the section I was editing also has a third line at the opening that reads:

<Protocol>Simply(KISS)</Protocol>

Does this need to be changed to something else or did I edit the wrong area?

Thank you.

#37513

Coming into this discussion late, but I’ll add my experience. I set up my KPC-3 (not +) with APRSIS and could not get KPC and APRSIS to talk. To make a long story short, I had the KPC already in KISS mode before I turned on APRSIS. When APRSIS came up, it would trigger the KPC to go into KISS mode, but instead it was turning off KISS mode. I then learned to put the KPC into simply KISS and it would ignore the command to switch on or off KISS; it just always stayed in KISS.?

This requires you to edit the APRSIS32.XML file by hand (text editor).
You will need to change the lines from the default Simply(KISS) values of:

? ? ?<OpenCmd>~!!0</OpenCmd>? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??<!— This is a simple NOOP (No Operation) — >

? ? ?<CloseCmd>~!!0</CloseCmd>? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?<!— This is a simple NOOP (No Operation) — >

<CloseCmd>^192^255^192~!cmd:!1</CloseCmd>

First 2 lines (of the "to" statements) will transmit the commands to place the KAMXL into KISS mode when APRS opens - OR, the port is reset.
The last line will transmit the 192, 255, 192 sequence needed to exit KISS mode when APRSIS32 closes.

In KISS mode, the APRS packet headers are bit-shifted to the left by 1 resulting in unreadable characters in a terminal view.? The APRS packet payloads are typically humanly readable however.

Flow control on the serial port, either the native serial port or the USB to FTDI adapter is set to 'None'.

Re: APRS with KAMXL

#37498

It appears that it's not in KISS mode. I believe it takes INTFACE KISS followed by RESET on my KPC-9612+ in order to put it in KISS mode.

Good morning:

I'm the one having trouble with APRSIS and the KAM-XL.??

This morning I used PuTTY to change the KAM-XL to KISS Mode.? The command was INTFACE KISS.

I opened APRSIS and get the same result.? It says KAM-XL OK but I can't get it to transmit and it does not show anything in the monitor window.? As requested here is a copy of the log file for the KAM-XL port:
