Re: Help with Modified MKCM SPE Amp.json

 

Ok , I would like to know more ,?
I had it all running 90%, steppir, Spe amp on my dashboard board .
I have a difficult time were to put in the 127.0.0.url ( windows number :)
I read something loop back if NDR and FRS is running on the same computer.
what does the amp and sda want , binary strings ,parse, ignore? I try 4 different ways and then it works .Reasons is because I had it all running looking good then I did not save or export and lost it all .:)?

the slices ( half running) ?, global , profiles, tx band ?mic settings , I have not had any luck , if I go in the FRS software all my stuff is running and working. Radio connections? I already have Dave flow pulling data from the radio ,
I need instructions like paint by numbers ? If anyone remember that :)?
thank you for ham radio support. !

OK, I mis-understood.

Now, for Windows Node-Red.? Here is a link to the install instructions.



First, you need to install Node.js.? Click on the link in the instructions.? From that website, you can download and install Node.js.? Do not install the optional tools.

Next, from the CMD prompt, ?install and run?Node-Red.? The install command will run a script and do the complete install:

You do not need to make anything for Windows FRStack install.

Go to the MKCM Software web site:



Select the link for Windows FRStack:

Click the link to download Windows FRStack:


<Screen Shot 2021-03-29 at 6.20.54 PM.png>


In your downloads folder, double click on the "FRStack3Setup (1)" file.

FRStack will do the rest. ?Just watch it install. ?It will ask you questions as it installs itself. ?You will have to tell windows to "keep" the file and allow FRStack ?to select the default file directory and make a desktop shortcut, if you like.

mkdir foldername

You might need to create the folders one at a time, top down if they don't already exist.

Re: Node - Red windows 10

thebaldgeek
 

I run Node-RED on a Windows PC and really (really) don't like hiding the command prompt that it runs in as there is often a great deal of helpful information in there that does not show up in the debug tab.

I also had a lot of trouble running it automatically?in an open (but minified) cmd box.
At some stage I found this program and have been more than happy with it for the 5 or so years I have been using it.

It starts on boot and about 15 seconds later will start Node-RED.
It will also restart Node-RED on a crash (rare, but I must (MUST) have it restart if I am not around).

Re: Web Page crashing

I would suggest two additional things.

1. Update Node Red to 1.2.9
If on a Pi do this by running the bash command in the WiKi used to install Node Red.

2. Make sure your nodes are updated. Go to Manage Palette and on the installed tab scroll down and see if any need to be updated.

3. What Alan said ;-)

Hi Mike.

Me too, but not as bad as your example.

I posted my issue on the Node-Red.org forum.? Colin from IBM responded and said I had too many errors and to clean them up.? I did so, and have been running good for the last 24 hours.

Here is a link to the Node-Red.org forum question.

Re: Help with Modified MKCM SPE Amp.json

 

THANK YOU, getting much better , lost my dark dashboard setting :(?
I have it checked in the dashboard site :)?


Re: Help with Modified MKCM SPE Amp.json

 

Hi Alan?
I have the FRS stack ?installed as windows application, for the last year.?

The frstack takes ?about 15-20 sec to connect to the radio then if I do anything in frs it locks up :(?
I was just wanted to add the sda100 and my Spe 2k amp to my dashboard.?

I am not to sure about a raspberry pi if I have high end computer. ?I would consider a different operating systems but only if I can all my stuff working .?
Dave is just amazing, I don¡¯t want bother him just yet :)?

I keep node red running for the dashboard,?
I will work on it some more this evening.?


Re: Help with Modified MKCM SPE Amp.json

 

Also, for Windows Node-Red, if you shutdown the CMD prompt with the Node-Red Console, Node-Red will stop running.? You must restart the CMD prompt and issue the "nodered" command to restart Node-Red.

Dave, WO2X, was working on a way to have Node-Red start in the background.? Maybe?he can help here.
