[arm-allstar] Echolink Connect announcements

Sun Sep 2 08:35:44 EDT 2018

Okay Doug, I’ll give it a try but it’ll probably be tomorrow (Monday) before I get to it.  Heading North to Kennesaw to spend the day with my son momentarily.

Mike,

Try

telemdefault=2  and echolinkdefault=1

This should always announce echolink and only announce local RF Allstar connects/disconnects.  Let me know if that works. 

The default echolinkdefault is 2 but that would mean you would only hear local echolink connects and disconnects. So that is probably the problem. Once it muted if someone came in from outside you would not hear it with option 2. I need to get that command added in for the download image so people see it. There are probably several seldom used commands not listed in rpt.conf but most any command you see in documentation is usable in the code. 

The echolinkdefault command should be added after the eannmode command in rpt.conf for clarity.  You can change the eannmode command to the type of output you want. When you change these commands you need to reload the rpt.conf file or restart Asterisk.

The question in my mind are the telemdefault and echolinkdefault independent of one another or does the telemdefault have an effect on the echolink telemetry in addition to the Allstar telemetry. I would hope they would be independent. 

The only way to really test this is to use the above commands and connect via echolink from the outside several minutes after you restart it and see if you get the connect message.

Doug,

I came across this page while I was looking for a solution for this issue:  http://docs.allstarlink.org/drupal/node/126

Neither echolinkdefault nor echolinkdynamic is available in my Nodes Stanza; only eannmode, which is set to 2.  

Would adding echolinkdefault=1 (or 2) resolve my issue?

Mike,

 telemdefault=1 means you will hear all allstar announcements. Is that what you want? telemdefault=2 is the default which means you only hear RF connects and disconnects on your own server followed by a delay and it mutes other telemetry..

Perhaps this is not working correctly as Echolink should do the same thing as Allstar.  If you have telemdefault=2 it does not work?

I got it, Doug.  I found an old email trail and set telemdefault=1.  That
look care of it.

Thanks,

Mike,

  Echolink like Allstar will only announce on the RF link it is connected
to. It is localplay like other messages. If you have Echolink on a node by
itself without a radio you will not hear it. That is the one downside of
having Echolink on a separate node. It that your scenario?
