Shari pihat / raspberry pi 5


 

Hello all,
I'm building an allstarlink node with a raspberry pi 5 with a Shari pihat and I can't program the sa818.
The node works with the default sa818 settings, but when I try to change settings using? "sudo sa818-menu" I get a connection error.
Anyone run into this problem? Any ideas how to fix?


 

Yes.? Because the Pi5 includes a debug serial port, a change is required.? The following from the construction and setup manual in the Files section of this group explains'
?

You must use the Allstar Link ASL3 image for the Pi5.

?

We recommend you follow the setup procedure shown in the following YouTube video.

There is one change required for the Pi5. In order for the Pi5 to program the SA818S using the Pi5 UART, the file /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt must be modified by adding console=serial0,115200 to the end of the current line in the file.? So the file contents become the single line:

?

console=tty1 root=PARTUUID=2f611b54-02 rootfstype=ext4 fsck.repair=yes rootwait console=serial0,115200

?

After modifying the file, reboot the Pi and ttyAMA0 will be available.? Then, when setting up the SA818 using the sa818-menu application as shown in the video, it is required to set the Serial Port to:? /dev/ttyAMA0
