Re: Zeroing meters when rig or amp off (eg. KPA500, Flex)

Sounds great Dave....I spent 2 hours today watching the YouTube video. It was great.
Are you gonna be updating the KPA500 / KAT500 flow too?
That's what I'm getting.

You’re welcome.?

Please read the comment nodes in the flows by double clicking them to read comments.

The VITA49 flow needs the ping node changed to the IP of your radio. That is the node that says 6600m.

In the FlexRadio flow change the IP of the TCP node to your radio.?

I had considered making setting the IP automatic but since you can have more than one radio on the network I decided to leave setting the IP address manually.

I know you are new to Node Red. Let me know if you have questions.

Hi All,

?

I have updated the following flows:

?

VITA49v5 & FlexRadiov5 – These two flows must be used together. I have zipped them into a single file and uploaded them to my file area. Meters are zeroed and client info removed when last client disconnects. Radio info clears when radio powered down.

?

KPA1500v2 – meters are set to zero when amp is off.

?

PSTRotatorAZ – Updated rotor flow to talk to PSTRotatorAZ UDP server. It incorporates Tormod’s Azimuth map.

That is exactly what my updated Flex Radio and VITA 49 flows do. When there is no client connected Node Red sets the meters to zero. Note – when disconnecting a client it may take up to a minute before the temperature meter actually goes to zero.

?

I also do the same for my Elecraft KPA1500 flow.

?

I am uploading the new VITA40v5, FlexRadiov5, and KPA1500 flows to the file section now. The VITA49 and FlexRadio flows need to be used together So I am zipping them as a single file. The new flows will detect the proper model of radio along with the software version and set meters appropriately.

NOTE – There is no fan speed internal meter on the 6300/6500/6700 models as they use 4 fans (2 different style fans) while the 6400/6600 uses a single fan.

?

Enjoy! Feedback is appreciated.

Thanks, Alan......the left pane is the one you helped me make. It's working great when the rig is on.? I imported Dave's KPA500 and KAT500 flows, but haven't gotten the amp and tuner just yet (although the "administration" has ok'd it). Next phase for me is to figure out how to add sliders to set power out and maybe other things.

I know for sure that Dave, WO2X, is almost ready to release a new version of the VITA49 and Flex API flow that will "zero" the meters.

Zeroing meters when rig or amp off (eg. KPA500, Flex)

Is there a way to zero the meters/text data for the meters when the radio or amplifier is turned off?
Currently, when they are off, the meters register full scale.

Re: Parsing a string

#1446

Since it's fixed length (8) convert it into an array then you can access each position via an index

Object.assign([], string);

newObject?=?Object.assign([], string);

OR without conversion

const splitString = originalString.split("");
fanState = splitString[1];
anotherState?=?splitString[3];

etc.

Hi Alan,

?

Mick’s single function node is fine for processing Mike’s string input. With the DLI the input is a base 10 number which equates to the binary position of the eight outlets.

A combo of both flows would be good for Miles use as it would give him visual indication and ability to control the relays.

?

Mike, if you need a hand let me know but this should get you on the right track.

I like the method Dave used in his DLI Relay Flow. ?The response is an eight-digit number, with 0 or 1 in each digit, depending on the relay status. ? Dave has a function to do a "logical and" for each digit to determine and outputs a true or false. ?Would this work for you? ? For example, if the second digit is 1, then the function "1 & 2" is true, because the binary of the second digit is 2**1 = 2 and 2 logical 2 is true. ?Likewise, for the third digit, 2**2 is 4 so the logical comparator is 4.
