Just need to pull the pins low. They need to stay low to maintain
that channel. The Motorola's and the Kenwood's work the same way.<br>
<br>
Yes, would like to see what you have in mind.<br>
<br>
Tnx<br>

OK fine. I can supply an example if you want but I was
wondering what they wanted to see. Do you set the four lines
BCD and then strobe another pin to load it? That is often the
way it is done or maybe it just monitors the lines for them
being stable and switches?<br id="FontBreak">

Nothing fancy, just 16 channel stuff. GM300, Maxtracs,
Kenwood 90 series stuff. Just got to yank the lines low. <br>

What is the format of the BCD control you are wanting?
16 channels - 0001 - 1111 ??</font> <font style=""

<div class="ecxmoz-cite-prefix">Hi Doug,<br>
<br>
Never did get a response. Was trying to avoid
reinventing the wheel.<br>
<br>
Never thought of using the patch command to do DTMF
stuff. Will do some investigating.<br>
That's the cool thing about Allstar/Asterisk, if you
can think of something, there's usually a way to do
it.<br>
<br>
All your efforts are really appreciated.<br>

In researching I saw you asked the same question
years ago and I did not see an answer then. Did
you ever get one?<br>

Using the GPIO on the Pi to BCD control a radio
would not be hard. In fact a user has already done
that using function codes and an external script I
wrote to control the bits. It is in use
commercially. <br>
<br>
The idea for the future code we are writing is to
get specific stuff out of the base code and put it
where users can create their own interfaces to
whatever hardware they want.<br>
<br>
Here are the basics of how I would do it....<br>
<br>
Use the patch command (with a different code) to
pass DTMF to a Linux script via an extensions.conf
dial plan.<br>
Then the script would take the number sent,
convert it to BCD or any other format the radio
requires<br>
and send it to the GPIO bits. Of course you would
have to interface those bits to the actual
hardware.<br id="ecxFontBreak">
</font><br>
<font style="" face="Tahoma,sans-serif">If you
needed to pass a code to a remote node you would
use the standard codes to pass the command to the
remote nodes dial plan.</font><br>
