[arm-allstar] directory / file tree?

I have just recently begun learning about Linux with the project of setting up a raspberry pi 2 Allstar node. With the (extensive) help of a friend, I got the node up and running and connected. Now I am having problems with a couple of (what should be) simple things and I am having a lot of trouble finding instructions to navigate through arch Linux. I have looked through the wiki and the instructions on the arm allstar site, but most documentation seems to assume you've been doing this for ten years already. Does anyone know where there might be a diagram of the file structure, or a list of basic commands? Maybe instructions for a really dumb beginner, haha!

Parrot Mode
Question
Message-ID:

Content-Type:
text/plain; charset="utf-8"

I see that there is the ability to put AllStar
into parrot mode either
permanently or able to turn it on and off by
command.

Exactly how to do this isn't quite clear to me ...

There is a
config option to be set somewhere. What is that option? I'd like
to be able to
turn parrot mode on and off by DTMF codes.

The process of defining DTMF codes
seems to be two-step process, one place
to establish the command and another
place to define the DTMF codes. Is
that correct? How would the process to turn
on (say *985) and the process
to turn off (say *986) be configured?

The
reason for the question is that I've set up a new simplex node in Laie,
Hawaii
and want to map out the reach of the node. It seems to me the
easiest way to do
that is to have the Pi parrot back to me so I can hear
what the system heard as
I go around the area.

Any help is greatly appreciated. With your information,
I would be happy to
write up an How-to article based on my experience as a new
administrator of
a node.

Aloha!

This is what I have in my rpt.conf file for my
parrot mode...

810=cop,21      ;parrot mode on
811=cop,22    ;parrot mode
off

That means *810 turns it on and when you are finished *811 turns it
off.
That simple.

You also need to put in rpt.conf in the node section the
following parameter:

parrotmode=1     ; 0=off 1= By Cop Command and  2=Full
time parrot simplex/rpt
