[arm-allstar] Allstar setup for RC210 Controller

I have not done it before, but the cable looks fine.

Is you RC210 set for active low on the PTT and COS on port 3?

When you receive on your repeater, does the PTT light on Port 3 on the RC210 light up?

If not, did you link the Port your repeater is on and the Port 3 on the RC210?

Kindest Regards

I made node 43801 using a Pi3 and URI.  It is connected to port 3 of an Arcom RC210 Controller.  The Controller is on the W9LKI repeater 147.105 and the system is fully functional for a long time.  I can SSH into the node.  I can connect to 43801 using my personal node 42119 and it shows connected on the Allstar Node Stats page.  I used simpleusb-tune-menu item 2 to set the level as I have on other nodes I have built.  When I try to DTMF or Voice call into the repeater it is not heard (meaning *3---- connect) or seen on the CLI.  Activity by other nodes elicits a response on the CLI when they are connected.

 

The simpleusb.conf is set up as follows

 

eeprom=0

hwtype=0

rxboost=0

carrierfrom=usbinvert

ctcssfrom=no

txmixa=composite

txmixb=composite

invertptt=0

duplex=1

 

The node/controller uses the DMK Eng URI pinouts as follows:

 

URI  dB25                                                   Controller dB9

 

pin 1=ptt  ............................. .......................pin 7=cos in

pin 8=cos  ............................. ..................... pin 3=PTT out

pin 19=gnd  ............................. ....................pin 6=gnd

pin 21=mic_in (what I call Tx Audio)  .............pin 4=Tx Audio outout to radio

pin 22=left AC (what I call Rx Audio)  ............pin 5=Rx Audio input from radio

 

Any help the group can provide as to set up of RC210 and suitability of the above settings would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance
