question dashboard

 



Hi
The dash board has limited space , has anyone find a way to fill the whole dashboard? with scroll bar to the side .
?Instead having links can i have everything on page on ??

Re: Initialize relays at RasPi startup

 

Domenick

For my GPIO based relay flow, to "initialize" a relay on Node-Red restart, just change one of the "Test" inject nodes to inject one second after start. ?This will position the relay and store he result in context memory. ?I show below an example of using the "false" or open the relay, as an example.

Of note, one of the issues with Raspberry Pi GPIO pins, is the first initial "state" on boot up is undetermined, that is the purpose of waiting one second to initialize the relay. ?Keep in mind, as a result, the relay position could be anything for the first second before the "initialize" inject node fires off.

For automatic just use an object node to send Boolean false. Connect it to all the Pi relay GPIO outs. Set the inject to send once after 5 second then interval to never. When you start the Node Red server it will initialize the relays after 5 seconds.?

Re: Serial Control of the ERC-4 Rotator Controller

 
Edited

Hi Nick.? Yes I did add a map like Dave did.? I have uploaded my most recent versions of Rotator_20210806.json and Map_Interface_20210806.json to my wb0smx_Flows/ERC_AzMap directory (Note** Moved to !1! Flows by Type/ROTORS/ERC Controller/ERC_AzMap_wb0smx) in the files of this group.? The Rotator flow replaces the original ERC_Control flow that I posted earlier.? But you can change the name to whatever you like.
The two flows are designed to interface with each other through the link nodes.? I modified and simplified Dave's Map flow for my purposes.? It still shows the current beam heading and target heading (for 20 seconds after setting target), and allows for clicking on the map to set a target bearing.? The Rotator flow still has buttons for shortcuts to specified bearings, as well as free form input of bearings in text and numeric fields.
Good luck and enjoy...

Re: Scope Creep and Graphics: My Solution

 

Working on Mike's idea of a global MQTT broker to share data.

Is there any interest?

If so, what data is of interest? ?Seems like data similar to what is now "spotted" on DX servers would be a starting point. ?Since this data is now "public", sharing the same on a un-secured MQTT broker would be the same.

Anyway, I built a flow, to take the Frequency Data and MOX status from Daves's, WO2X, Flex API flow and upload that to the "test.mosquito.org" Public MQTT broker. ?To limit data flow, the TX frequency is only uploaded when MOX is on.

Here is a link describing the Public MQTT broker. ? ?

I set the topic to be "call_paramater", or in my case for frequency, ?"wa9wud_freq". ?I see others using Node-Red, wanting to know my frequncy, to subscribe to the same topic, and building flows to display.

Other ideas for designing the MQTT "topics" are welcome.

Depending on interest level, I will or will not pursue this idea.

Flow for Alpha 87a

 

Does anyone have a working flow to control and load frequency data to an Alpha 87a amplifier??


Re: Serial Control of the ERC-4 Rotator Controller

 

Randy?
thank you for the flow, did you add an Azimuthal map .
I was trying? to add a? map like? Dave did, but his flow required? PstrotatorAZ . any ideas ?
I works great ,?

Re: File /Node-Red DAX and CAT/nDAX nCAT Multi.json uploaded #file-notice

 

Thanks, Mike.

For this project, I wanted to try running Linux WSJT-X.? I have repurposed?an i5 NUC to ?Linux Ubuntu, and am using that to run my Node-Red station, and now WSJT-X.

I want to compare Windows DAX, CAT, and WSJT-X to Linux nDAX, nCAT, and WSJT-X. ? So far the Linux device is very fast and stable. ?

I saw you were, too, setting up nDAX and nCAT.? How have you found it to compare to Windows?

Have you tried a different image writer?? I had the same problem and used a different image writer and all was fine.? You might also want to re-download another image just to make sure it's not already corrupt.?
