Re: Video Frstack
Hi Alan,
Thanks for the quick reply. I went back and re-ran the sequence for the NetCore 5.0.1 install. Following the WiKi:
I had downloaded the 64bit file. Verified with an ls of the Downloads folder. Entering the final sudo command line above, lists a bunch of files. I assume that meant the installation was successful. I then changed back to the /usr/local/frstack folder. After re-running the Run FRStack WebApi sequence, I still get the error. Sorry, still stuck. Unclear which versions I'm to be running for both .Net Core 5.0.1 and FRStack (32bit vs. 64bit) on a Raspberry Pi 4. 73 Mike - AD0WB |
Re: Video Frstack
Your Dot.Net is not installed. Repeat all the steps for Dot.net.? When you "unzip" the file, pay particular attention that you adjust the name of the file to be unzipped to match the actual version number you downloaded. To do this, while you are in the Downloads folder, do a "ls" command to show the files.? Copy the name of the Dot.net into the zip file, removing the name that is shown in the Wiki.? Or, just?adjust the version number to match. Alan |

Re: Video Frstack
I'm stuck at FRStack as well.?
I'm installing on a pi4, and have been following Dave's 64 bit WiKi. Pi OS installed & updated. Check. .NET Core 5.0.1 Installed. Check. Node Red installed. Check. Next up: Install FRStack on RPi. FRStack downloaded & unzipped. Check. Next up would be to Run FRStack WebApi from a Command Line. This is where I run into trouble. When attempting to execute (from /usr/local/frstack): dotnet FRStackWebApi.dll --urls "http://*:5025" I get an error msg: "bash: /usr/bin/dotnet: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error" I ls and see all of the files. I see the same command line in the?FRStackWebApiReadme.html file on Mark's site. I'm sure it's user error - I just don't know where I'm messing it up.? I downloaded the FRStackWebApiRpi.zip file as I'm running a Rpi. Should I have gotten the FRStackWebApiLinux.zip since I've got a Rpi 4 (64 bit?)? I am not very comfortable with linux, so please go easy. I'm kinda lost here. Any help here would be greatly appreciated. 73 Mike - AD0WB |
Re: Clickable Azimuthal map flow for PSTRotatorAZ
Tormod's range pointer flow has been one of the more popular threads we have had.
I see most of you are building the image file and then copying the result into the function. I have not yet tried this new flow, but, I have been working with a new set of nodes that work with image files. The "jimp-image" node will read an image file, format the file per your pre-set configuration, and send it out as a msg.xyx, or a context variable. ?One of you might be interested in combining the ability to select the desired image and then send it to Tormod's function to build the map underlay image string. This way, you could have selectable map underlay images, for showing your rotor pointers. Here is a link to the flows: ? ? Alan WA9WUD |
Video Frstack
Is there a youtube video of installing Node Red and FR stack on a Raspberry PI.
I used the wiki on this site and started over several times.? I have succes with node-red intall and can experiment in node red mut the part of FRstack allways gives errors and i'm not able to install FRstack 73 Jan on8aj |
Confused
I downloaded David's flow FlexRadiov5b1.json? flow and imported it and have it working.?
However, my confusion comes for the comment that you made saying drag the other tabs from the groups.? All my dashboard shows is the radio and the meters nothing else. When I transmit I get the Red Transmit.? I do not have any other tabs to bring in and it certainly does not look like the pictures that you had in the zip file. I do not have any other tabs to drag in that I guess I could use to integrate other functions.? If all I have is all there is then that's fine I just do not want to be missing a step Thank You Eric KZ5ED |

New Control Panel - N3FJP Integration
All,?
Thought I'd share my latest updates. Loving the new rotor control. Working on making it even more useful to some of our folks in our group shack. This screen will be in our group shack above the operating position so other people can see what is going on with the current op station.? I've added a new section for QSO that connects to N3FJP API and gets the info from the entry boxes for CALL, Name, and State. This is just an early stab at it and I am going to work on pulling the entire set of text fields out and being able to work with all the data. I'm just learning the TCP IP interfaces and parsing the data that is returned.? If anyone else has started working on it or I've missed it somewhere, I'd like to see your examples.? Thanks for looking Jason - KE0EJS (new QSO info in lower right-hand corner currently. ) |
Re: Looking for comments from new members using Node Red
开云体育Just be careful. ? If you have Flex data going to the KAT500 full time then you will not be able to manually control the tuner. The Manual commands would get overridden by the info coming from the Flex. ? However, you can bring the Flex frequency and band info into Node Red and have a gate set up for Auto or manual mode. In Auto mode format the Flex data and pass to the KAT500. When in Manual open the gate so that the Flex does not stream info to the tuner then have manual controls set up. ?

Re: Looking for comments from new members using Node Red
I am relatively new to Node-Red and started using it before I found this group. It's loaded on a Pi 3 B+ with a 4 relay pi hat.
Installation was easy. Videos on YouTube and documentation on here has helped quite a bit. Having easy access to flows made it easy to learn the basics of Node-Red.? |
Re: Looking for comments from new members using Node Red
Another item you might want to put on the "how to" wish list, and to expand on one of the points I mentioned above is how to go about starting your first flow and maybe the first things you want to think about.
1) How does it connect with NodeRed?? Serial?? Network?? Get it communicating (or at least a serial or TcP node pointed to it).?? 2) First flow should probably be if you can turn the unit off/on via NodeRed.? Try the flow and verify the unit does what is expected. 3) Poll the unit for some data, maybe that's serial data to get a status of the unit.? Start small with one piece of data and work your way up. 4) Make lots of backups between small changes and develop some type of versioning system so when everything stops working, you can get back to a reset point. 5) Use the inject node to push data to the unit and verify it does what is expected (Send "change to antenna 1"). 6) Learn to use the debug mode often when things go weird. 7) Research on the web examples of code.? I've learned you have to think a bit like a programmer to research how to do something on the web.? Once you get that speak correct (or click on enough links) you'll find someone has already asked the question and solved the problem.? The hardest part is probably how to ask the question so your first click is the final answer. Spending some time looking at simple examples has helped quite a bit, but there are still simple flows that I'm confused on because I just don't have that advanced knowledge.?? Kyle AA0Z |
Re: Station Upgrades with Node Red Integration
开云体育Hi Scott, ? Glad to have you on board! ? Here is a link to the LP100 flow from Al, K0VM ? As you update equipment that has connectivity (serial, USB or network) you can consider bringing CAT info from the Elecraft K3’s into Node Red, then be able to do band switching, antenna selection, etc automatically and with a graphical user interface. Node Red is not restricted just to Flex radios. I recently helped a ham interface his Icom 756 Pro III to his PalStar LA-1K amp and various software programs. ?

Re: Station Upgrades with Node Red Integration
Hi Kyle!
I've just begun down the path for Node-Red use to integrate/remote my station. 2 x Elecraft K3 TopTenBand Decoders drive ICE-419b bandpass filters and SixPack for by-band antenna selection using CAT from the radios, so no Node-Red integration needed for that. M2 Orion rotator and 2 x TicRing rotators, along with many remote antenna switches (some Ameritron brand) for selecting beverages and other varieties of antennas not controlled by the SixPack. I also have six stack matches to integrate.? Currently using N1MMRotator to turn the Orion, but long-term I am going to use the method documented on YouTube by VE6WZ and use PSTRotator running on a computer at the remote site? I have not yet begun working on the manual antenna switches. I have an LP-100A - would love to be pointed to a flow for it.? I had planned to just let it run on the local computer via a serial connection. I use Teamview to connect to the local computer - have been doing this for a couple of weeks now, and working FT8 remotely.?? Also, my amps are all manual AL-1500, AL-1200, AL-811.? Gonna have to bite the bullet for new remote-controlled amps, OR set it up such that each is used only on a single band and use a remote-controlled relay to turn the power on/off.? Not elegant, but perhaps doable.? Will have to overcome resetting OP/STANDBY switch if trips out, as well as the need to retune on 160, 80, 40.?? --Scott W5WZ |
Re: Looking for comments from new members using Node Red
开云体育Today 1/20/21 WA9WUD spent a little time getting me up and running with
Node Red. I am very grateful to Alan for the time he spent showing me several
commands to enter. Dave he used your Flex flow to get me my first dashboard. I
am both intimidate and excited to see what’s coming up for me in the months and
years ahead.
