[arm-allstar] RIM-lite not working after update

[Lloyd Duck]

Well I guess chalk this up to "radio" as it's all working now.

In short, Allstar software was not talking to the RIM-lites as the heart beat light was solid "should be flashing" and the PC green light was not on.

After unplugging, taking everything from the repeater site down to the QTH and replugging in, it all worked fine.

I then took everything back to the repeater site and connected as it was before and the problem was still there.

Scratch the old head a bit, powered down the Pi and powered backup and it started talking to the RIM-lites again.

Heart beat light is flashing, green pc light is on and the ctcss light on the RC210 is off.

Audio sounds great again, I did make a mistake and had made a change to the simpleusb.config after all the trouble started. I had changed the ctcssfrom= to usb and it needed to be usbinvert for the audio from the repeater to Allstar to work.

I didn't find anything broken or changed, just wasn't talking to the RIM-lites.

Thanks Doug for your fast help as always.

Doug,

Yes, I’ve restarted and reboot the server several times. I even just waited two days to see if it started working again. 

Yes on the heart beat, there is a steady light on both RIM-lite’s. 

There is a CTCSSS led light on the RC210 on the port the RIM-lite is connected to. That wasn’t there before the update. 

I did not login into the Asterisk Client and look for messages, but I will and I’ll report back.

Lloyd,

  I have no explanation for that happening. Nothing was changed that would cause this. Have you restarted or rebooted your server? Are you seeing a heart beat on the FOB's? Steady light? Have you logged in and brought up the Asterisk client and looked for any messages there. If you are seeing messages there please pass them on.
