Hi
I have TLB working, 3 ports interconnected, IRLP exp0114, ASL 60088 and Echolink XE1E-R (dashboard: tlb.xe1e.net ) but no PTT action to other ports when a signal is received in another. I unmute and monitor all ports.
Please any advise will appreciate.
XE1E? Enrique.

Have you used a script or command to link the nodes with the "" command???
theLinkbox requires nodes to be linked by command after connecting. Most use an EventScript (see tlb.conf) to do this as nodes connect. There may be a very basic (old) example event script (tlbevents.sh) in the tlb source under the scripts directory.

Yes, I?m using the tlbevents.sh, the log file indicates that nodes are linked:
Jul 09 2024 18:52:45 -0600 TLB: connected outbound NH2R-L 3
Jul 09 2024 18:52:45 -0600 TLB: link NH2R-L stn8952: 1. stn8952 0u

Jul 09 2024 18:52:45 -0600 TLB: NH2R-L skip same node: 3. NH2R-L CP
There is activity in the Echolink side and I heard nothing, no receive indication (blue color), and also activity in the AllStar side is the same. Only if there is activity in the IRLP side yes I hear whith no problem but if I talk say in AllStar (I see blue indication in dashboard) there is no activity in the IRLP and Echolink side. Hope you understand me.

What version of Allstar are you running?

If necessary, I can provide some
scripts that can be tweaked.? They are known working, as they are
used on transcoding IRLP/Echolink reflectors.? They only need a
minor tweak to remove code specific to the reflector environment.
My setup used two scripts - one to get a list of active ports then
using xargs to link each port pair to the newly connected station
to existing ports.

After the station has connected, what
does the output of "tlbcmd link" look like?
And you can use the "tlbcmd port"
command to check the status of the ports when there's traffic.

Port linking will still work even if
this isn't done, but you will get an echo between Echolink
stations (this is NOT what "Echolink" means! :D? ). The echo
happens because there's two audio paths in parallel - one via the
normal conference and one via the port linking.? Setting
ConfEnable = 0 stops the conferenced audio.? I've accidentally
done this before. :D

Yes, ConfEnable is set to 0

I?ll appreciate that, perhaps only need some help to modify the scripts.

That looks like tlb itself is working
and the ports are corectly linked.? Your issue seems to lie in the
audio interfacing outside tlb, going by that.

OK, so all connections are in software,
no hardware involved?? It's going to take a bit of digging from
here, as it looks like tlb has the ports linked (the output of
"tlbcmd port" is as I would expect).

Something else I'm noticing, when I put EcholinkEnable = 0 in tlb.conf I can't make a connection between Allstar and TLB, the connection fails within 10 seconds, with IRLP without problem, is this normal?
XE1E? Enrique.

Tony
Yes only software ports. My idea is to use TLB to link IRLP with ASL, Echolink link it through Allstar's Echolink channel. Is it possible to do this?
Radio ports are in the Allstar node.
