Re: Clickable Azimuthal map flow for PSTRotatorAZ

For the azimuth map, once I have created it in PDF format I import it to Microsoft Word. I convert to Word document then I can delete the header info leaving just the map. I right click the map and save as PNG. Next edit the PNG file in MS Paint and resize to 500 x 500 pixels.

Re: Help with Modified MKCM SPE Amp.json

The IP address that would give the message you show should be the IP address of your raspberry Pi.? If Node-Red and FRstack are on the same Raspberry Pi, use the Loopback IP and port :5025


Screen Shot 2021-01-20 at 8.30.06 AM.png

This sets the communications between FRStack and Node-Red

For the SPE amp connection, you need to configure the COM port in the FRStack configuration file, ?located at "/usr/local/frstack/appsettings.json.

Here is a link to the MKCM instructions.? The configuration file is show about 3/4 ways down:



Here is a screenshot:

My Node-red is running on a Pi, and it feels like I need a port setting opened up but I'm pretty sure I don't have firewall installed (yet)

Any ideas?

Re: Clickable Azimuthal map flow for PSTRotatorAZ

 

Yes, just duplicate the Svg node and use a different map. I ended up adding duplicate controls also and then put the US map on another page. I can then select if I want the World or just the US heading display.


Re: Clickable Azimuthal map flow for PSTRotatorAZ

 

Interesting. How do you do it? Duplicate the Svg node? Will try it tomorrow.

Re: Clickable Azimuthal map flow for PSTRotatorAZ

 

It's possible to zoom in and have a US (or anywhere) map also. Both maps can be functional at the same time if desired.

I heard about Node Red on the Flex Radio Community where a video and resources were posted. ?After watching a practical demonstration of Node Red and visiting the official web site, ?I downloaded and installed Node Red following the detailed instructions on the site. ?I watched the tutorial on how to get started using the Node Red tools and began creating flows. ?The Flex Radio Community then announced the creation of the nodered-hamradio groups io. ?This group was formed to provide a resource for ham radio related Node Red activities. ?There are a number of experienced users who constantly monitor and answer questions in the group. ?In a very short time, I was creating flows, and with the help of the group, customizing the flows to my specific radio station. ?Node Red is very visual and it is not necessary to know software coding to produce useable results. ?I now have an active display where I can monitor and control various aspects of my station either locally or remotely outside my network.

Enjoy the adventure,
Bob, KN4HH?

Hi all

For members who are using Node Red for the first time, we are looking for simple comments on your initial experiences using Node Red.?


The purpose is to show new Node Red users how easy it is to get started. Getting Node Red loaded then installing some existing flows and then customizing to your needs.?

Re: Clickable Azimuthal map flow for PSTRotatorAZ

 

After a couple of swing and misses I got it. Created the file and found how to import it. I configured the zoom/pane features and the coordinates on mouse over. Great addition to dashboard.

If you want to convert the image to a transparent background, I use this online editor.

Great addition! Thanks for sharing.

Here is my version showing the actual antenna pattern width.

Make sure it is 500 x 500 pixels. You can use Microsoft Paint to resize it. Then save as PNG file.?

Hi Santiago.?

You need to create an azimuth map for your location then import it into the SVG node in Node Red.?

I can create it for you if you like.?

I have installed Tormod’s flow and paired it with my rotor flow. Very nice!

Great. Tried it, and it works. For the moment it has its own tab on the dashboard because main tab is already crowded.
