Hi Dave
I need to be careful my iPhone does not see me responding. ? Anyway, here is a UTube video that may assist you.

Does anyone have experience with using Alexa to control a node red flow??
Thanks in advance for your input,

Re: NodeRed on Windows 10

Perhaps Node-Red is not running when you try to see it on the browser.
On Windows Node-Red you must keep the CMD window open after giving Node-Red the start command "node-red".? If you close the CMD window, Node-Red stops running.
Also, for Windows FRStack, there is an extra "/api" in the URL.? If you want to command your Windows FRstack from Windows Node-Red, use the following?in the "Set Parameters?Here" node:

I installed the Vita49 and Flex v6 flows.....it's not the TX meters.......it's only the S-Meter that goes full scale on disconnect for the 6400
I modified the function node you had in there to set the meter to -140dBm if no client. It worked.

Re: NodeRed on Windows 10
It doesn't display the dashboard even with localhost:1880/ui
I went to "allow a program to pass the firewall" and node js is checked
so I don't know what else could be blocking it.

You can load the VITA49 and FlexRadio flows in addition to FRStack.

Re: NodeRed on Windows 10
Works fine for me... It may be an issue with your windows firewall. Worst case, the need to open that port up.

Re: NodeRed on Windows 10
Hi Charlie
The first place I would look is to make sure that the Firewall isn’t blocking it.

The browser window has "undefined" at the top.

My VITA49 and FlexRadio v6 flows already zero meters for the 6400.

The newest version of the Flex3000 flow is in my folder here. It's under KB8CR's Folder.
I hope I can transfer the meter zeroing to my 6400's flows once I look at how you do it.

Basically I used the rpi imager to burn the 32bit version to sd card, went through the setup as instructed by the imager. I then switched vnc on in raspi-config and cut and pasted your 32bit wiki instructions for installing nodered and frstackwebapi.

Then I loaded the modules in your text file, node-red-contrib-msg-resend? node-red-contrib-ui-level? then rebooted the pi.
I then loaded the frstackNodeRedV107.json from the FRStackWebApiRPi_3_1_27_56.zip file ,enabled the SPE AMP flow and it worked.
You do need to press the Open button on the SPE dashboard to get the info from the Amp. (I think missing this point was my main problem)
That is about it

Hi Charlie, ? Please send me your latest flow for the 3000. I want to try to zero the S meter during TX and power meter during RX. I do not have a 3000/5000 but can simulate them for testing the meters. ? I try to be careful. My ordeal started in May 2019 and late July 2019 I was diagnosed with an infection in my left knee which was replaced for the second time in Nov 2017. They did a debridement surgery on Aug 7th 2019 thinking it was a bacterial infection. The leg was getting worse by the day On Aug 20th they found out it was an ultra rare fungal infection with only about 2 to 3 cases a year in the U.S. Hospital for Special Surgery and Mayo Clinic never had a case. Wound up having to travel to Philadelphia, PA to have the knee removed in Sep 2019. They immobilized the leg for 14 weeks and in Dec 2019 put a new knee in (my third @ 58 years old at the time). During the 14+ weeks they stopped my heart meds since it conflicted with the anti-fungal meds. I wound up with severe congestive heart failure, pulmonary effusion, and blood clots on the lungs. The symptoms were so bad that if I had those symptoms today they would think I had COVID. ? So it has been a roller coaster for me. Dealing with pain every day but it beats the alternatives. They almost amputated my leg in Sep 2019 so at least I can walk, even though range of motion isn’t the best. ? I can’t bowl anymore (was a 220 avg bowler) so picked up a new hoppy, pistol shooting. After 3 month wait I got my purchase permit and am going to try and go to the range once a month. Ammo is scarce and expensive so I think once a month is good to get me out. ? 73 Dave wo2x ? ?

Hope you're feeling better. I went out for the first time in a LONG time, to pick my brother up from the airport. Had two masks on.....Fauci would approve.ha ha.
I got busy here with business stuff the past few days. I did try increasing the frequency that the inject node repeats in an attempt to make the S-meter track better. Still isn't great. I think that because the 6xxx series sends the data as a stream in UDP, it is much more responsive, but at least it's working.?
My 6400 flow (and the KPA500 and KAT500 flows I got from the repository here) all have the same issue with meters that go full-scale when the rig is turned off.
BTW, I did just make a deal on a KAT500/KPA500 combo that I will have in early March. (Now those screens won't just be a pipe dream).?

Check your meter nodes in node red and
to see how you have animations set.

I wonder if it would be more responsive, if I ran NodeRed on the
computer that is running PowerSDR, and use virtual serial ports,
rather than the TCP serial server. Right now, I'm running NodeRed
on the Pi, which is going through my network to get the data.
