Re: WSJTX and GPIO on PTT


 

开云体育

Hello Ruud,

1. I fryed GPIO 17 when it accedentily got 5V ;-((

Right.. that's what I was assuming but I wanted to call it out just in case you didn't know.


2. GPIO 31 is an internally GPIO pin and you cannot physically connect something to it. So that doesn't solve my problem

nono.. that's not true.? You don't seem to be aware of the Raspberry Pi alternative GPIO pin mappings:

??


3. This should be the solution, but..... hamlib can address a GPIO , but wsjtx doesn't seem to accept that.? So chatgpt adviced me to write a script (running in the background) that monitors the PTT status in WSJTX and addresses the GPIO-pin (eg. GPIO 25) on tx or rx. I can't get it working ;-(

From a WSJT-X perspective, you should just call out using Rig type #1.? The magic of using different GPIO pins for PTT is done when you start rigctld.? Research that in hamlib but it should work.
