P25RX-II P25RX-II Firmware Updates / Testing

[wmlovell]

10-17_0359 Some more updates to the Display View tab. Width of the display fonts relative to the window can be programmed. Lines can be cleared when on the control channel vs when monitoring voice channel. Added $P25_MODE$, $RSSI$ key words. I resized the window for the screenshots to demonstrate that the fonts scale relative to the window size. The display view mode is an idea that @freqseeker had. The idea is to use a small monitor hooked to a Raspberry Pi running the BTCFG-II software.

Is there a keyword where I can have the RID Alias display?

Very nice! Great idea for an RPI display.
For those that are looking for Win10 or Linux in a small package, a hand held GPD MicroPC (6 inch screen with multiple ports) is one option that I use for a many tasks.

Todd, Are these keywords a preview of the API you are developing?

There is now. $RID$ and $RID_ALIAS$ in version 10-17_0712.

Todd, Are these keywords a preview of the API you are developing?

I haven't done much for the API yet, but the keywords will be part of it. The general idea for the API is a binary command/response with optional CRC checks. The API will allow access to this type of information, audio, raw incoming decoded bits, IQ samples, etc.

Not yet, but there will be soon. There is a button in the editor for "Show Keywords". It doesn't do anything yet. I'll get that done possibly this evening or tomorrow.

No luck w ACARS command “unrecognized“.

It isn't in the P25RX-II yet. I'll add that to the list. I still need to add FMNB and NXDN as well.

I'll try to get to this before the end of this week.

In version 10-17_1853, the 'cal_rst' will set the VGA gain mode to AUTO. If you ran the 'cal_rst' command after running recent updates, there is a good chance that the VGA gain is set to a fixed gain. When you update to the latest version, the VGA gain will be set to AUTO and the configuration will be reset.

Any way to change the font to a san serif style?

Will work on getting font selection added this evening. I also plan on adding the import/export functions for the display view. I think everything else with it is working ok now. There were some display view bug fixes / additions earlier this morning.

 

[rr60]

Trying to keep up w you😆.

This revision working perfect. Nice thanks. Appreciate screen shot, makes that easy.
This is my “new” display.

Version 10-18_2025 is available. Font selection functionality is added to the Display View tab. Import/Export functions have been implemented. A couple of bugs were fixed. I believe Display View is complete now. I'm sure there will be more keywords added. Let me know if you find bugs with it. I'll attach an screen capture and a file that can be imported for this view (after unzipping).

SW 10-18 20:25 it appears under search ID tab, when I hand enter CC channels to test they test fine. When using line select one or group of CC after testing and pushing the button delete selected rows. Does not delete. Force close SW they clear fine.

Thanks. The way the zip search / testing is mixed with the roaming flash is not the greatest implementation. I will be changing this. I plan on leaving the zip search / testing the way it is on the search db tab. The roaming flash functions will get a new tab and will integrate with scanning profiles.

In version 10-20_2309 there is a <read roaming flash> button added. This will clear the table and read back the frequencies contained in the roaming flash.

Is this also going to be implemented I the regular P25RX?
