Hi Ed

It is uploading to YouTube now. Then it needs to process so may take a couple of hours to complete.?

I will post a link when it is done.?

Re: Getting started with Node Red

 

Alan, Dave ... thanks for the Zoom meeting last night. I appreciate your taking the time to host that.?
I have a very extensive? multi-state remote radio system in place and have been remoting since the 1990's. As automated as I am, I often have to bring up multiple systems. There is an appealing elegance to the Node Red dashboards I'd seen.? I was attracted to Node-Red for the control simplicity it offered.

I had a steep learning curve over the past few days to get where I am on Node-Red. I have done a lot of work with Arduino and C++, but I've never played with an OS, the RPi or JavaScript. In future lessons, you might help others along by realizing that there are really 4 steps to mastering this for someone like me (an RF engineer):

1. Learn how to run the Rasberry Pi itself. How to interface to a terminal, etc.?
2. How to load and run the OS.?
3. Learn how to load simple flows in Node-Red using GPIO interfaces.?
4. Learn programming in JavaScript and building the dashboard.

Most Node-Red "beginner" tutorials assume you already know steps 1,2, and 4. That was not the case for me. I felt there was a lack of mid-level tutorials out there. For example, I could find little about how to build and arrange a dashboard. Your meeting last night filled that gap and got me heading in the right direction.?

That said, sometimes the only way to drink from a fire hose is to start drinking.

Thanks for making yourselves available to true beginners and for your patience.?

To see the flow's dashboard use a web browser: ? ?"IP of your Windows machine running Node-Red:1880/ui"

I'm a complete newbie to Node Red, so please bear with me...

I am currently running Node Red on Windows 10. It appears to be working.

I have imported WO2X's AG 2x8 flow. Why this one ? Because I have previously implemented the N1MM-to-AG functionality using VB.Net, so I have an idea on how the Node Red flow ought to work. I changed the port numbers and IP addresses to match my configuration. I deploy the flow, and it does something as I change bands (but not correctly switching the AG). The simple thing I don't know how to do is display this flow's UI so I might be able to see what is going on.

Re: Interest in Zoom presentation on loading nodes, flows and dashboard customizations?

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Hi Dave,

?

Welcome aboard!

?

I am doing a 1 hour Zoom presentation tomorrow night on exactly what you are asking. I am going to load a new Raspberry Pi 4 following the WiKi before the presentation then go through the steps to load necessary nodes, Flex Radio flows, and show how to access and customize the dashboard.

?

The Zoom meeting will be at 01:00 GMT (UTC) Thursday, which is 8 p.m. Eastern US Wednesday.

I know it is late for you so I will be recording the presentation and get it uploaded to YouTube.

I have sent the Zoom link in a separate email.

+1 from me please!
I'd really like to see some basic integration with a Flex from scratch.
I'm a total noob when it comes to programming so haven't got a clue how to interrogate the Flex with Node Red, though I do have it installed on a Pi4 8Gb and managed to get it to boot and shut down using Alexa via a relay board to the rear Rem On port

Thanks. Very helpful. I have graduated to 4th grade arithmetic and can now multiply numbers (LOL)!?

Re: Help with Modified MKCM SPE Amp.json

 

Success!

And success using the USB cable!

The secret sauce was making sure that the "SPEComPort" setting had the complete device path! I don't know why that was so difficult, but thanks for everyone who helped.

Now it's time to see if I can get fancy!
