Re: output power
开云体育Yes. MMDVMHost (and DOH) use a floating point value from 0.0 to 100.0, which they then convert into an unsigned character with a range from 0 to 255 that the modem firmware expects. The QnetGateway software is a little closer to the modem
firmware, at least in this case. On 7/8/21 12:32 PM, Elden AI7HL via

Re: Qnet gateway sounding like Darf Vader?
To talk to YSFGateway, local port should be 3200, and gateway port should be 4200.? Local port refers not to the device, but to MMDVMHost itself.? Even though they run together, MMDVMHost and YSFGateway are two completely separate pieces of software.? Basically, it is the port that MMDVMHost is 'listening' on.? Gateway port the port that YSFGateway is 'listening' on.?
In the YSFGateway configuration, you should basically see the exact opposite:? local port in YSFGateway.qn is 4200, and MMDVMHost port is 3200.? |

Re: output power
RF Level is now available in the "./qnconfig expert" menu. The default value is 255 (100%) and the range is 0 to 255. I have no idea how linear this parameter is for any given modem.
Of course this is only for the "mmdvmmodem" modem type (used for MMDVM modems operating in "DStar-Only mode"). If you are using the "mmdvmhost" type modem, then you are running MMDVMHost along side of qngateway, qnlink and qnrelay and you would control RF Level with your MMDVM.qn config file. Sorry this took so long. Several files had to be changed. P.S. I'm taking a "summer vacation" that isn't so much about ham radio and so my response time is much slower than normal and my code production is also down. I will get back to more normal activity levels sometime in September. |

Re: Qnet gateway sounding like Darf Vader?
开云体育We’re talking about the local port under the fusion heading that should be 4200 correct? i’m looking at my?fusion network heading, and I see: [System Fusion Network] Enable=1 LocalAddress=127.0.0.1 LocalPort=4200 GatewayAddress=127.0.0.1 GatewayPort=42000 # ModeHang=3 Debug=0 This is after I’ve changed the localport to 4200

Re: Qnet gateway sounding like Darf Vader?
Sorry that I wasn't clear.? The Fusion Network port in MMDVM.qn SHOULD be 4200.? This is the port used for communication between MMDVMHost and YSFGateway.
The port used for outbound connection from YSFGateway to a YSF reflector is most often 42000, as in the case of US-Amercia-Link.? The ports for outbound connections to YSF reflectors are found in ~/YSFClients/YSFGateway/YSFHosts.txt |

Re: Qnet gateway sounding like Darf Vader?
开云体育So I went back, and updated my network port in YSFGateway.qn, and MMDVMhost.qQN to 42000, uninstalled, and then recompiled the program. ?YSF gateway is running, I can get confirmation from the hotspot that the YSF portion is working, but if I try and use the wires-x button, I don’t hear the ascending tones that let me know ‘m in wires-x mode. ?Is there anything that I may have buggered up?

Re: Qnet gateway sounding like Darf Vader?
You shouldn't need to open ports to use YSF reflectors.? There is constant polling between YSFGateway and the reflector which keep everything open.?
From the log, it seems that YSFGateway is attempting to connect to America-Link on port 4200.? I double-checked, and the correct port for America-Link is 42000 (which is the standard WAN YSF port).? |

Re: Qnet gateway sounding like Darf Vader?
You don't need to disable one to use the other.? There are to setting near the top of MMDVM.qn that control what is called 'Mode Hang'.
'RFModeHang' is the time in seconds that MMDVMHost will ignore other modes after you key up on a given mode. 'NetModeHang' in the time in second that MMDVMHost will ignore other modes after a network transmission has been made in a given mode. As long as these two are set appropriately, you should never have an interrupted QSO in any mode. I personally prefer 20 seconds for RFModeHang and 10 seconds for NetModeHang. |

Re: Qnet gateway sounding like Darf Vader?
开云体育SO when you want to use the YSF side of the hotspot you just turn off the d-star side, or do you leave it running? I really like the interface now that this is working it is clean, and the dashboard is easier to navigate.

Re: Qnet gateway sounding like Darf Vader?
That happens.? I don't know for sure, but I think it is a temoprary DNS error.? I have waited a bit before trying to connect to one of those listed as 'unable to resolve address' and have been able to connect.? Truthfully, there is really never anything in the error list that I ever connect to.
Glad you got it working! |

Re: Qnet gateway sounding like Darf Vader?
For using YSFGateway, MMDVM.qn should have the following under System Fusion Network:
System Fusion Network] Enable=1 LocalAddress=127.0.0.1 LocalPort=3200 GatewayAddress=127.0.0.1 GatewayPort=4200 # ModeHang=3 Debug=0 If you use the instructions I gave you for creating the log directories, then the log paths would look like this: FilePath=/var/log/mmdvmhost? #for MMDVMHost, line 28 in the MMDVM.qn file you posted FilePath=/var/log/ysfgateway? #for YSFGateway, line 29 in the YSFGateway.qn file you posted For making changes to do with MMDVMHost or YSFGateway, you can stop and restart those specific programs without doing a complete uninstall; but things don't always behave properly when you do that.? The best bet is to run a 'us' command from qnadmin, then run an 'is' command.? There is no need to run qnconfig unless you are making changes to the D-Star side.? As long as you haven't run a 'git pull', there is no need to recompile. |

Re: Qnet gateway sounding like Darf Vader?
开云体育HI there,What does your log path statement look like in MMDVMhost.qn, and YSFGateway.qn? ?It helps having some examples, since I’m using voiceover on the mac, and having a working example let’s me compare the two and check for errors. ?When you are configuring, or adding a new module, do you have to uninstall the whole thing and reinstall, so essentially recompile the gateway, or can you add corrections once it has been configured without having to use the us command?

Re: Qnet gateway sounding like Darf Vader?
开云体育SO what if I just want to have YSFGateway across the board, what should it look like under MMDVMhost.qn?
|
|
Re: Qnet gateway sounding like Darf Vader?
Since you are having issues, my first suggestion would be that you configure and verify the functionality of each voice mode independently.? Disable Fusion and Fusion network and verify that D-Star is working; then configure Fusion.
You appear to be attempting to configure xlx307 directly in MMDMHost under your YSF network, but you also have YSFGateway configured.? If you wish to XLX307 directly, the your configuration under Fusion Network should look like this: [System Fusion Network] Enable=1 LocalAddress=127.0.0.1 LocalPort=0 GatewayAddress=xlx307.openquad.net GatewayPort=42000??? #note that the default for this field is 4200 # ModeHang=3 Debug=0 The advantage connecting directly to an XLX reflector is that you can change the module of the reflector from you radio.? However, this also makes it so that you can only connect to XLX307 modules and nothing else.? That is why I would recommend using YSFGateway instead.? For YSFGateway, the Fusion Network portion on MMDVM.qn should look like this (so long as you haven't changed the ports in YSFGateway.qn): [System Fusion Network] Enable=1 LocalAddress=127.0.0.1 LocalPort=3200 GatewayAddress=127.0.0.1 GatewayPort=4200 # ModeHang=3 Debug=0 The other thing I noticed is that your logs paths haven't been configured.? You need to specify an extant path for the log for MMDVMHost and YSFGateway.? I prefer to use /var/log.? I would create a directory for each log: sudo mkdir /var/log/mmdvmhost sudo mkdir /var/log/ysfgateway After that go into MMDVM.qn and YSFGateway.qn and populate the FilePath under [Log] appropriately.? This isn't the only way to do it, but it is a fairly standard configuration for programs running in systemd. |

Re: Qnet gateway sounding like Darf Vader?
开云体育OK let’s see if this works? ?I need to have the RX at 439.000, and the TX at 434.000 that’s the way that I have this setup in my Th-d74. ?I should be able to use MMDVM host?
