Re: Some sort of odity type bug

Karl G6ODT
 

This happened on 2 machines now when using UK5.BMP for some considerable
length of time the map goes white and just displays the icons. If I swap to
other maps bmp/gif they are OK and if I swop back to uk5.bmp it says error
in loading bmp or somthing.

Closing down UI-View and going back in cures it, not major but I thought I
would mention it.
I've had this happen while playing back logfiles. Clicking on the stop button
restores the map. Again only noticed it with the UK5 map.

Well well well
guess what ????
i have had some success
i can now get all beacons from my packet machine sent to m inet machine here i
am typing thins and watching the other stations coming in.
for some reason the place i was going wrong (i think) was specifying the ip
address on the wrong port.

i tried the one that is in the ui-view INI file 1448 and it all came through i
also used the sub mask ip address which made a difference (i think) but i am
off
to bed now as it is 4am and i will play with it tommorow.
Don't confuse IP addresses, subnet masks, and ports.

IP Address
----------
On a LAN, the IP addresses are conventionally of the format:-
192.168.0.1
192.168.0.2
192.168.0.3
192.168.0.4
Etc...

(There are other recommended series that you can use.)

Each machine is given a unique address and each machine should be given
a domain name.

As mentioned previously, creating a file called HOSTS in the WINDOWS
directory and putting in it the domain names and IP addresses of local
machines is always a good idea. You should also put in an entry for
localhost - which provides a means for a client to connect to a server
on the same machine. So, a hosts file might look like this:-

127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.0.1 development
192.168.0.2 kidz
192.168.0.3 voyager
192.168.0.4 packet
192.168.0.5 k6


Subnet Mask
-----------
The subnet mask, which in Win95/8 you specify in the LAN adaptor TCP/IP
properties should almost always be 255.255.255.0.


Port
----
The port used is entirely application dependent. The range of valid port
numbers is 1 to 32767, and servers like UI-View will normally use a port
number above 1024.

A server opens whatever port it is told to use, and listens on that
port.

A client connecting to a server has to specify the domain name or IP
address of the server and the port. If a domain name is specified,
Windows resolves it to an IP address by looking in the HOSTS file.

UI-View acting as a server defaults to listening on port 1448, but you
can change the port in UIVIEW.INI if you really want to. Clients have to
connect to the port that the server is listening on. I chose 1448 as the
default port for no other reason than because APRS in the UK uses
144.800MHz and so it should be easy to remember.

It's the last time you changed the status text. Or, strictly speaking,
it's the last time you clicked the 'Ok' button in the status text

Re: TX in RX mode...how to disable?

Carl
 

The only place I've placed W2EV-2 is in the TNC's MYCALL. How would I
disable that function to be a truly RX-only station? There's a real
reason for wanting to be RX only at times.
Absolutely - when away from home and wanting a hard copy of all the
mobiles scurrying about....

I run my TNC in NONE (i.e. command mode) so using TERMINAL to issue
XMITOK OFF does the trick, however, I then realised that even in
KISS, unplugging the microphone plug is quite effective too :)

WXData Uploaded

Karl G6ODT
 

Hi All,

I've uploaded a simple little program to the Extras directory
of one-list.
It's called WXData and is a Windows program that you can
manually enter WX data and it will generate a file called
WX.Dat which UI-View can read to allow you to run a WX
station.
You might want to create and .XTR to make UI-View start
the program at start up. An example would be :-

WXData
WXDATA.EXE
True
True

This assumes the program is located in the Ui-View directory.
if it isn't change line 2 to point to where you have located the program.

Have fun

Another wish......for 2000

"Pauline Moldon" <[email protected]
 

Hi all,

Well things are looking up.

Sometimes my little map of the British Isles is full of stations.

Ive seen Roger and beyond.

Today ON ? was coming through on several occasions.

Other times during the day, I am alone.............

G4VQZ (CHI) sometimes swings his beam to me and we have a chat, but try as I
may I cannot even get a ping returned from even the closest station heard
direct.!!!


We went to the Pickets lock Rally last November and bought an ex-PMR radio
from SMC.

This is a 7 chan crystal radio with 25 watts out.
Sounded good at the time, so I ordered up two pairs of crystals.

One for 144.8, and the other for my local BBS.

I set up a generator etc, and tried it out on RX, but there is not even a
change in noise level between chans let alone a tone being heard on the
speaker......

My Wish....

I wish something would go right with the radio kit for a change....

Happy new year to all.

That's the problem, Bob. Running network mode requires AGWPE as the host.
No, as said in a message yesterday, using UI-View as a server, which is
what Bob wants to do, is a completely different thing to connecting to
AGWPE, local or remote, via TCP/IP.

When you connect to AGWPE via TCP/IP, it's just the same as using AGWPE
on your own PC, except that the TNCs and radios can be on another PC,
and that PC can be on your LAN or on the other side of the world!

When you connect to UI-View operating as a server, it's very similar to
connecting to APRServe. The client sees the traffic from the server's
radios, and the client's traffic can be gated out to RF by the server.
Several clients can connect to the server and talk to each other, just
as if they were connected to APRServe. You can also connect the server
to APRServe and all its clients are then effectively connected to
APRServe. AGWPE isn't needed.

The reason I'm reluctant to try to provide a blow by blow account of how
to do it is that most of the setting up is a case of getting TCP/IP
working on the two PCs. That's a Windows configuration thing, it isn't
remotely specific to UI-View, and it can be very difficult to explain
something like that from long distance, if the person trying to follow
the instructions hits problems.

Both PCs must have TCP/IP attached to their LAN adaptors, they must have
IP addresses assigned to those adaptors, and they need a HOSTS file with
correct entries for the host names and IP addresses of the machines on
the LAN.

Once you've got TCP/IP working between the two PCs, the UI-View bit is
very easy. Other than for the INI file entries, all the setting up, for
both server and client, is done in "APRS Server Setup". The INI file
entries must be made when UI-View isn't running.

On the server PC
----------------
1. You make an entry in IGATE.INI for the callsign being used on
the client PC, so its traffic will be gated to RF. E.g. -
G4IDE*=TRUE
(That's assuming you want to gate the traffic.)

2. You check "Enable local server".

On the client PC
----------------
1. You make an entry in the [APRS_Server] section of UIVIEW.INI for the
server PC. E.g. if the server PC is called "packet" -
packet=1448

2. You select that as your APRS Server.

3. You don't check "APRServe log on required".

4. You connect to the server by using "Connect To APRS Server".

Perhaps someone who has got TCP/IP working on a LAN could try setting up
two UI-View systems as server and client, and then report back? It might
result in a better explanation than I'm giving!

Re: AGWPE Version 2000.15

Nick
 

Warning! I had a bit of trouble with IE5 persuading the correct version
to download. I run a large local cache, and IE insisted on "downloading"
the previous version from the cache, even though I tried to force a
refresh. In the end I had to flush the cache.
The way to MAKE IE5 bypass the local cache it to hold down a shift button
whilst clicking on the refresh button on the tool bar, HTH ?

hummmm so as i thought i dont need to run agw if i dont want to
but i can still get it to work over a lan
agw and tc-ip set up says it will work for 45 mins any longer than i have to
recnnect the link or pay a registration fee.

fine but to pay 28 bucks for that is a bit much suppose and i dont want to
run agw.
Actually, you DON'T need the AGWPE TCP/IP module to use its TCP/IP
interface from within a program. (I could explain that further, but I
think there's an explanation on George's web site as to what the TCP/IP
module is for.) So anyone with the latest AGWPE can connect to it using
TCP/IP from UI-View without having to register anything.
