The timer is based on PTT transmit signals, not COR (unless operating as a repeater controller, but that is a different ID script).

This is how the interval ID system is set up. It ID's on first transmission, every interval after that, and then after one interval of inactivity sends a final ID.

Re: New IRLP node
#piirlp
Dave K9DC
Node numbers are not assigned to boards. Rather they are assigned to a software installation which you must have a board, to complete. If you have been assigned a number in the past, which you must know, it is possible to recover the number by corresponding with installs@ IRLP.net. If you do not know your number, or if the registered owner is not you, requiring an exact match of the email address of your request, it cannot be recovered. To obtain a new number, you simply perform a NEW installation. A number will automatically be issued to you as part of that process. There is no need to contact anyone for a new number assignment. All NEW number assignments are vetted by a human before they will work. Sometimes it takes us a couple of days to review and install your new key. So do not expect immediate access to the network after just completing an installation. You will receive an email upon installation of your key. -k9dc

New IRLP node
#piirlp
Hi
I purchased a V3.0 IRLP board a few years ago and am in the process of modifying it for use with a raspberry Pi. I cant remember if I was allocated an IRLP node number of PGP key when I purchased the board. Is there process to recover an old IRLP node number and key or do I need to apply for a new one? Who do I need to email? Thanks in advance for your assistance. Chris VK5CP

Re: Network disconnected script?
Thanks Dave, I know Kevin will read this, the PING IP is a variable you can set in the script. I'll make one of them the DEFAULT in version #2 which I'm working tonight and I'll upload it. ** Dave Parks **

Re: Network disconnected script?
You are most welcome Kevin, glad I could help. Via email we boiled it all down to Kevin's node kept dropping Openvpn and either Kevin had to reboot or restart Openvpn /usr/sbin/service openvpn restart. Our fix was to run a ping check every X minutes or hours (adjustable) and take a snapshot of each of the 3 pings, If the total of the snapshots = 1 or 2 we know there is some latency and need to take a look at the network but if the total = 3 then automatically restart Openvpn. I will be putting this script up on my website, it will be called Openvpnreset. If you're interested... It's easy to download and setup as user repeater type; cd $CUSTOM chmod 750 openvpnreset.wb8odf Then edit the script, all the details are inside, if ya need help just holler I'm locked down.... HELP!!!! ** Dave Parks **

Re: Simplex node ID
Allow me to throw this in for simplex node users as far as ID-ing. My VOICE/CW ID scripts were written to work just like a repeater controller. When you start the script, it sleeps until either COS or PTT goes high (which also has a kerchunk filter) when the COS or PTT does go high it ID's in the background if it's PTT or waits until COS goes low and then ID's (again in the background). While either COS or PTT (or both) stays active the script ID's every 10 minutes, then when the COS & PTT goes low for 10 minutes it ID's one more time, making the ID the last thing your node transmits and then goes back to sleep until the COS or PTT goes high again. The Kerchunk filter and ID timing are adjustable to allow other countries to use these scripts to be legal. Having said all that, I believe Dave C VE7LTD built a CW ID into the IRLP software, but I'm not sure if it does all this. ** Dave Parks **

Re: Simplex node ID
Because you are bound by the FCC and they’ve treated an ID when the station is not actively used (a repeater on standby) as a beacon or a one way transmission, the answer is no.

Besides it’s annoying to repeatedly hear (unless you specifically don’t use PL during an ID). ID is a setting in the config. Rick NK7I Smell Czech corruptions are inevitable

Re: IRLP automated system announcements - Audio Levels?
Tim
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
If you can't upgrade or have the old software, put in a "pad" (pot) between the node and the radio and pad the overall audio (man talking in the box) down to a comfortable level, then run the slider for the user level up where you want it. I realize this is a hardware fix and in most cases, it might be more appropriate to just upgrade the software. In my case it's easy because I plug the node into a port on a controller, so I set the port level to the "man in the box" level, and then adjust the user's voice with the slider in the node software for where I want it.

If the level of the audio announcements is significantly higher that the node audio, you may have an old script on your node. Some of the old scripts that mixed the "node number 1 2 3 4, link active" scripts have been replaced. They used to be VERY overbearing. There is no way to adjust just the audio of the announcements. I would suggest that the nodes you are connecting to are sending weaker than normal audio, and you have turned yours up too loud to compensate. When adjusted right, the announcements should sound the same as the audio coming in.
