Hi Gennady,

?

HRD Logbook still has bug that mode mapping is not correct. Clicking on spot in HRD DX cluster 14.074 sets CW instead of DIGIU. This is an HRD bug and not a problem with your connector flow.

?

I have opened a support ticket with HRD. This is why I stopped using HRD several years ago.

I have it working now but need to test all the features.

I needed to add a hex to string function after the Flex TCP CAT node.

Once I verify everything I will post the updated flow.

Not on my end. The debug node on output of the TCP request that communicates to Flex CAT returns a buffer

Hi Dave,

So let me replay the request.? You want:

  1. a NodeRed flow that gets the frequency and mode,
  2. and injects this into LogBook.? ?
  3. LogBook will write this to the DB.


#1 is complete (as log as you have v6.7, and perhaps other v6 versions.)

#2 I'm not sure how a system talks to the frontend of LogBook.

#3 uses a OBDC connection (I think).??

?

Node Red has a OBDC node, so that is good.

?

Question:? ?Where do you see the operators name, notes, etc. that you might want to add to Logbook come from?

I'll look to see what I can see.

Hi Greg,

?

Ultimately having a way to emulate the HRD server so Logbook can communicate to the emulated server would be preferable.

?

Object is to run HRD Logbook and use the cluster in it to set radio frequency and mode, then I will use JTAlert to have WSJT-X contacts sent to the logbook (that works now)

I’ve been using N3FJP AC Log which I like for its functionality and fairly simple. It talks to the Flex via the radio’s API.

?

Someone had written a utility called Mini Deluxe which used one of the Flex Com ports and then acted as a TCP server for logbook. Problem is it hasn’t been maintained and there was a period where the HRD programmers were changing the main TCP server to logbook communications and as a result the mode on the radio was not being set correctly when clicking on a spot.

?

I could get Wireshark set up to capture communications between HRD and HRD Logbook, then do the emulation in Node Red.

?

Yes..returned data is agnostic -- some rigs will give error reports when things aren't implemented though.

get_freq for example is not available on all rigs.

Hi Greg,

?

Have a “mission” for you.

Create a simple (yeah right) “connector” between Node Red and HRD Logbook, similar to what Mini Deluxe and DDUtil do. I’m looking for a simple way to connect either the Flex or Node Red to HRD Logbook. I do not need to run two GUIs to run my radio.

?

In other words, replace the main HRD program with a simple connector to get and send frequency and mode to and from the radio for logbook. Let me know what you think.

Hi Adrian,

?

OK - I have not tested this with an older version of HRD.? ?That said, I can make this work, but I will need your help.? ?My thoughts right now are that the HRD v5 does not send the buffer as the v6 currently does.

The mission, if you accept, is to capture the data between DM780 and HRD v5, and then email me the data.? ?I'll review it and edit my flow accordingly.

?

You will require Wireshark and this will be run on the same PC as HRD and DM780 are installed.

Prerequisites: install Wireshark

Steps using Wireshark, HRD, and DM780:

  1. Start Wireshark.? ?A menu of "interfaces" will be displayed.
  2. Choose the "Adapter for Loopback Traffic capture" by double clicking it.? See image.
  3. Your Wireshark should start spewing data like this next image.? ?Note that the traffic is on port 7809.
  4. Use DM780 to change frequency, mode (USB/LSB/FM/AM/CW), etc.??
  5. Restart HRD once.? ?This will send get context (which already works), but there might be other stuff.
  6. Stop Wireshark capture by pressing the Red Box.? ?See image.
  7. Save the Wireshark capture by sel4ecting File, Save As.? See image.
  8. Send me the file.? ? callsign at gmail com

I'll study the differences and use the "get version" response to automatically select the method used to parse the payload.

I believe 6.2 and older then 6.3 and newer have a different connection scheme. That is probably your issue.

5.24 Greg, an old version, but supports the FT-897 well, before HRD removed the flash ram agc cmds etc
Perhaps there was an instruction change after this version ?
I appreciate your help, It is not looking hopeful, but I have learn't a lot.

What version of HRD are you running?? ?

Did you try to connect to the "Demo-Matic" radio in HRD?


Observations: The response from the Query HRD node should be a buffer of data.? ?Could you expand the HRD result by pressing on the "right arrow"?? ?This will expand that section.

Hi Adrian,

?

Yes, your HRD is properly setup.? ?In the Context Flow view, your HRD Context is "93", which means that NodeRed was able to query and obtain that value from HRD.??

To level the playing field, can you change your HRD radio to the "Demo-Matic" version.? ?This emulates the FT-2000 radio.

Ideally, you would see this....

?

The contextflow variables should be populated....?

?

?

And, if you turn on the debug node called "HRD Result", your debug should display this data.? ? Can you expand the payload section?? ?You should see this sort of data.?

?

If the display works with the DemoMatic, then I'd like to see the returned payload from your FT897 radio, and I'll make adjustments.

?

Also, please edit the node "Carousel of Query Types".? There is an array called "getQueries".? ?Please edit line 9 to be?const getQueries=[16,21,17 ,25];? This will add the "get id" and "get version" query and this will be displayed in the context flow variable screen.? ? ?As you see, I am using HRD version? v6.7.0.357.b357.??

?

Re: File /!1! Flows by Type/RADIOS/HRD_ve9gfi.json updated #file-notice

 

no... the context variables are what has been polled and stored... it's not a configuration parameter.

I'm in a meeting but afterwards I will go and change my HRD configuration to use the "test" TS-2000 radio.

I don't believe that the type of radio that is connected matters, but I have no way of testing (other than testing the sample ts-2000.)
