Talkgroup Monitor Questions.

[keithmj]

Hi All..My Talkgroup Monitor is finally working. I am using SimpleCast ($139.00) and IceCast with the SimpleCast configuration setup. It is only showing the group ID until I get time to put in the rest of the info. My question is..I am streaming two scanners. One called /Live and one called /Live2. The one named /Live is already setup with Talkgroup Monitor and I want /Live2 to do this also. Do I need to install another copy of Talkgroup Monitor? Or how is this setup? Do I just add the talkgroup IDs to the same Titles.txt file that /Live uses? But I don't know where to put in /Live2 for the Monitor to see it..Or where can I read more about this? Also won't I need another com port? Thanks..Keithmj

You need to install a second copy of Simplecast (in a different directory) and the same for TGM. Yes you will need a second COM port because you are talking to a second radio. In the second copy of Simplecast you need to specify a different port number (be creative). Also in the second copy of TGM in the config files, you need to specify the same port to ensure that TGM is talking to Simplecast. Be mindful of the serproxy settings as well. If you have the default...5331 5332, etc. just make sure the second TGM is routing to the right port.

Not sure if too many computers these days come with more than 1 serial com port
