Issues connecting with Dinah Interface - SOLVED


 

I recently purchased a Dinah interface to use to connect my RPi3 to a radio with a data jack. I originally connected to an old Icom 207H of which I have two of them and no luck with either of them In the mean time I got another 6pin mini din cable thinking maybe the one sent with the unit may have been bad. However no luck with the new cable. I connected it to? a Kenwood V71 I have and made sure the side of the radio I selected was correct for data. It transmits my callsign and? myi.p adddress on bootup and Id's once every hour. But I cannot connect to another node. The lights on the back do not light up. I even tried a different USB port on the Pi to no avail. Is there some configuration in the programming that I missed to get the DINAH to talk to the Pi.? I am at a lost what to? do with it.

I worked with Les via a phone call to get his DINAH working.? He had a couple settings wrong.? I will be rewriting the DINAH setup procedure in the near future to make it more like the SHARI setup procedure which has more pictures in it.? Also I will include the COS LED setup as part of the procedure instead of a separate document.


 

Thank you again Steve for getting me straightened?out. I was able to connect to a friend in Virginia and the audio quality was excellent.
