Rob,

 Yes, the ctcss input is a logic level like carrierfrom. It is rarely used but can be used in conjunction with the carrierfrom to select using or not using ctcss. Just ignore pin 7 and leave ctcssfrom=no

This is often confusing to newcomers. I will make that clearer in the docs.

Hi Doug. I had pin 4 (9600 baud data output) of the FT-7800's rear 6 pin mini-DIN connected to pin 7 (CTCSS detect) of the URIx. When I removed that connection, everything worked fine.The 9600 data out of the FT-7800 carries the CTCSS tone, my thought was that the URIx could directly detect my CTCSS tone for optional use while either/or utilizing the COR detect discreet signal. Am now understanding that the URIx CTCSS detect is also looking for a discreet signal which I was pulling it the wrong direction with the connection to the FT-7800's 9600 data out. Feeling silly at my flawed logic, which is overshadowed by my pleasure that it's all now working.

Rob,

Do you have a valid COS signal to the URI from the radio?  What radio are you using? If in /etc/asterisk/simpleusb.conf the item carrierfrom=usb  then you need a high (>2v) at pin 8 of the URI on a valid RX signal and if carrierfrom=usbinvert you need close to 0V at pin 8 (at least less than .5v) on a valid RX signal.

I would be glad to talk to you on the phone or maybe echolink (WA3DSP-L) if that would help

Thank you for that Doug, Am getting audio from the URI to the radio, but do not appear to be getting audio from the radio to the URI. Verified with a scope that the audio from the radio is getting to pin 21 on the URI, but not seeing it on simpleusb-tune-menu item 2.Getting close with some help!

Robert,

 I went back and looked at your original message. The RPi2 images uses simpleusb not usbradio. You need to use simpleusb-tune-menu to set audio levels.  Simpleusb uses  COS, PTT, audio in and audio out to your radio.

Hi Doug, got the image installed & went thru the setup while reading along your setup guide. Still having same problems so am quite convinced it is something simple I am overlooking.

Rob,

 Welcome to Allstar. Unfortunately this email list is not for that release. Our release is at hamvoip.org and I think you will find it a better and soon with our next update a much improved release. It is very easy to install. If you want to continue with the release you are using then the app_rpt list is the one you want.

Greetings to the forum.My name is Rob I am very new to Allstar Link and have some questions regarding the setup of my first server/node. Any and all help and advise will be hugely and genuinely appreciated!
Setup:Rpi 2 running the Rpi2_dial imageURIx interface (no eeprom) to an FT-7800.port forwarding 4569 UDP and 222 TCP
When I run "radio-tune-menu", audio is getting thru the radio in both directions.
When I go to the web transceiver to test I cannot connectWhen I try to send dtmf to the node radio I get no response.
Am sure its something simple and obvious, probably a loose nut between my headsets.Thanks again for any advise! I will happily answer any questions to help zero in on a solution.
Sincerely,Rob ConklinN4WGY
