[arm-allstar] help with echolink setup

[Doug Crompton]

Sam,

 The howto on using the autopatch and a dial plan is on hamvoip.org.

I can give you guidance on doing it but I don't have time at the moment to spell it all out. A block diagram in text would be -

Setup another autopatch function code  pointing to a dial plan context

*623xxxxxx  to echolink  for connect
*621xxxxxx  to echolink  for disconnect

or you could do it with two autopatch commands to save a digit -

*62xxxxxx to echo_disconnect
*63xxxxxx to echo_connect

Only the defined autopatch function code would be entered in the functions section, 623, 621, 62,63. The rest of the digits would go to the dial plan.

The dial plan could either directly call asterisk and issue the echolink command or it could call a script that would do it. It is very flexible

So for connect the final call would be *33xxxxxx  and disconnect *31xxxxxx.

I thought I gave these details and more in a previous message. If after reading the howto you need more info don't hesitate to ask.

Do you have the echolink command in the CLI?

The dial plan method has benefits for RF nodes on the same server, which I'm guessing would be the large majority of implementations.
Once I get the node actually registering with Echolink servers from within the BBB/RPi, the dial plan should be easy to add. The Echolink login/password works just fine from a Windows client. Need more time in front of the asterisk editor. It's pretty low priority.

Mike,

 One other thing that I am sure you understand but others who read this may not is why do it using the dialplan method. The answer is it allows Echolink to be on a pseudo node and also allow users to enter specific Echolink node numbers. The line -

/usr/bin/asterisk -rx "rpt fun xxxxx $1$2

in the script is executed on the server  where both the pseudo node and radio node reside. So in the above line the xxxxx is the node number of the pseudo node but the command actually comes from the radio node.
