Re: Allmon3 on a Shari Pi hat
Thanks Michael but your answer doesn't really help me. I'm well aware of ASL 3, and have spent considerable hours to have an end result where it wasn't working well on my Shari.
All I wanted to know is it possible to install Allmon 3 running Hamvoip.

Any thoughts anyone?

This is a fresh install ASL 3.0 and it works great. i’ve done four installs of ASL 30 one on a Hub cloud server. It really is a better piece of software.
?I’m just not able to get the connection going to the Shari?
I think it’s something to do with the configuration files.?
That being in the asterisk file and the SA818 config file.

I did exactly that! I've done a couple fresh installs and had no issues with "sudo sa818-menu". Plus i have my Hamvoip as backup taped to the node.?
You need to do a fresh install.? I suggest you use a new microSD card so you have your HamVOIP installation as a backup in case you encounter difficulties in setting up ASL3
|
As for the usb serial port. I specify /dev/serial0 in sa818-menu and I'm running the unistrom sharipi node set up.?
The way sa818-menu in ASL3 is set up, the default serial port is serial0 which then has a link to ttyAMA0.? ttyAMA0 is the UART in the Pi.? The SHARI PiHats use this serial port so the default setting should work for the SHARI PiHats and PiZero.
In order to program the SHARI PiXX (Pi3U, Pi4U, Pi3V, Pi4V) change the serial port from Default to /dev/ttyUSB0.

When exec'ing "sa818-menu" you should see a "Serial Port" setting. ?Try changing this to "/dev/ttyUSB0".

Did you do a fresh install or an upgrade? If you did an upgrade what command did you use?

increasing audio bandwidth on ASL3
Greetings:
I've just discovered that, since ASL3 runs modern Asterisk, I can connect ASL3 nodes together using slin16 (raw 16 kHz linear PCM), and both the usbradio and simpleusb drivers do, in fact, allow for that little extra bit of high end to come through the connection.
HamVoIP, while it supports G722, which is a 16 kHz codec, hard filters the highs on it's simpleusb channel driver, so there isn't much point other than for compatibility to do this, but ASL3's drivers are capable of passing more highs. This would be especially great for repeater controllers, as with a properly calibrated system, you could achieve audio that sounds more like simplex than it would at 8 kHz.
I tried this test with a SHARI connected to a radio-less node.
To do this, I put
allow => slin16
allow => slin
at the top of the codec priority lists in /etc/asterisk/iax.conf under the general and radio stanzas of both nodes.
This won't work with HamVoIP or anything older than ASL3.
Just FYI. I am way more excited about this than I probably should be, considering it probably won't be widely deployed.

If you mean by "config-file", configuring the SA818, you now use sa818-menu from the Bash shell

Re: Allmon3 on a Shari Pi hat
Probably but why?? HamVOIP is running a severely outdated version of Arch Linux and they do not share the source code.
?
They made it very easy to install the new Allstarlink 3.0 to a pi and its properly using the GPL license(I know some don’t care, but I do.).

Re: AllStarLink.org - New ASL3 version just released - HUGE upgrade for all Pi & PC versions
Well at least its running a modern linux distro so we can run hostapd now.

?
Heads up!? AllStarLink.org just released ASL3 (beta)!? They're calling it beta, but it is VERY stable.? I've been running this for months on voter nodes and hotspot nodes.
?
See their release announcement here:?
?
Below is my own summary of what they are releasing:
?
-
Complete Pi image that works on Pi 3,4,5 & Zero
-
Runs on any virtual or physical x86_64/amd64 and arm64/aarch64 platform
-
Built on the latest Asterisk LTS version and Debian/Raspbian distributions
-
Read the line above again ^^^ , this is an upgrade from Asterisk 1.4 to version 20 (and beyond)
-
Easy install guide / manual with step-by-step instructions
-
Simple upgrades any time with “apt upgrade” command (no more breaking due to dahdi)
-
Refactored/rewritten app_rpt with numerous enhancements
-
Built in landing page for quick access to Allmon3, ASL3 manual and Cockpit device management
-
Allmon3 pre-configured and ready to use (can still use older Allmon or Supermon)
-
Command line switching between devel, beta and main (stable) distributions
-
Enhanced ASL setup menu for node configuration (including multi-node and multi-device configs)
-
Enhanced SA818 setup menu for SA818 based hats & dongles
-
Auto-configuration of most USB sound cards and SA818 devices
-
Super simplified rpt.conf for multi-node configurations (can be done from menu or manually)
-
HTTP based registration (also still supports legacy IAX registration)
-
DNS based node name resolution (also still supports legacy file lookup)

Re: AllStarLink.org - New ASL3 version just released - HUGE upgrade for all Pi & PC versions
Do you mean the COS LED? PTT LED worked out of the box for me.
?
Find the [events] section in rpt.conf and uncomment the stanza and add the following:
?
cop,62,GPIO4:1 = c|t|RPT_RXKEYED
cop,62,GPIO4:0 = c|f|RPT_RXKEYED
?

Hi Patrick, thanks for the tips. I have it running on my Shari Pi Hat but can't figure out how to turn on the PTT LED. Any tips appreciated.

Re: AllStarLink.org - New ASL3 version just released - HUGE upgrade for all Pi & PC versions
Are you talking about the COS LED? This worked for shariuhf3
if so in /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf youll need to add
[event-cor_gpio4]
; generally used to operate COR LED on hotspots
; by adding 'events - event-cor_gpio4' under [xxxx](node-main)
cop,62,GPIO4:1 = c|t|RPT_RXKEYED
cop,62,GPIO4:0 = c|f|RPT_RXKEYED
then under [your node number](node-main) and before ;[1998](node-main)
events = event-cor_gpio4

Re: AllStarLink.org - New ASL3 version just released - HUGE upgrade for all Pi & PC versions
Glenn:
I never bothered to set that up even in HamVoIP, because my eyes
don't work.
I am not sure if the instructions for that in the SHARI setup
guide still apply here or not, so someone else will have to
comment on that.
