Re: Any flows available for the Kessler AT-Auto tuner
Hi Bob,
There should be. The AT Auto manual has the commands to send to the tuner and then get data back.
I am not sure if anyone has written a flow for it. ? The manual for the tuner is here
? The commands for remote control start on page 82. ? 73 Dave wo2x ? ?

Thanks for any comments.

Re: How To : ser2net - Serial to Network Media Converter with a Raspberry Pi
You probably need to enable the ser2net service with the command sudo systemctl enable ser2net.service.??

Glad your doing better Dave.? I don't want to see you in New York City watching the ball drop on TV dancing to some Pitbull.? You have a pass for the next week.

Sore and a “pin cusion”. Will be bruised for a while.
Hopefully this will be a longer term fix for my electrical issues with heart.

Re: SPE Linear V1.1 flow uploaded to files section
Frank,
2 thoughts come to mind:
1) The 2K is the only unit with a combiner and lower unit. Any unit other than the 2K will not report data for those gauges. 2) I updated the comments in the initialization node to clarify what and how the unit setting works.? See if this helps. If not, let me know. 73, Ron WB2WGH
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ /* The SPE can be set to display temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit. Data returned from the SPE via the serial USB interface are unit-less and there is no way for Node Red to determine the temperature unit selected. The unit (C or F) selected in the SPE Node Red flow must match the units (C or F) selected on the SPE setup menu on the amplifier itself. For Those that would like to display units in degrees Fahrenheit, ensure the SPE is configured to report temperature in F, comment out the first line (Celsius) and uncomment out the second line (Fahrenheit). The purpose of the selection below is to 1) display "C" or "F" on the gauges and 2) set appropriate min, seg1, seg2 and max limits for the gauges. The flow always reports the numeric temperature provided by the SPE with no conversion (C to F or F to C) on the temperature itself. */ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everything seems to work except the temp gauges.? I initially commented out the Centigrade line and un-commented the Fahrenheit line in the initialization node, but that didn't work at all — the gauges all still showed ranges of 25 to 65, and none of them showed any reading.? I then restored the default for Centigrade in the Initialization node, but now I see no reading on the Temp (Lower) and Temp (Combiner) gauges, and a reading of 73 (which seems more like Fahrenheit than Celsius) on Temp (Upper).
Have you seen anything like this before?? Any suggestions on how I should debug this?

Next challenge will be to see if I can get FlexRadio 6400 to work using tailscale. SmartLink doesn't work because the router at the remote site doesn't allow port forwarding.

Re: K3NG arduino-based rotator interface via Pi4 with NodeRed?
From any PC, also running and logged into Tailscale:
In a web browser, enter the Raspberry Pi's Tailscalale address, port 1880. ?And a /ui at the end to go to the dashboard.
Or, id you are local, with both PCs on the same subnet, just use the IP address of the Raspberry Pi.
For example:
100.4.3.5:1880 ? goes to the Node Red Editor
100.4.3.5:1880/ui ? goes to the Node-Red Dashboard.

Re: K3NG arduino-based rotator interface via Pi4 with NodeRed?
Did you "authenticate" your Tailscale on the Raspberry Pi? ?If not, on the Pi, run this command: sudo tailscale up
You will get a URL for a web connection, plug that into a browser, and that will take to a page to authenticate the Raspberry Pi TailScale to your account. Now on the Windows side, in the bottom right tray, right-click on the Tail-scale Icon:  You will see a "log in" line. ?Go to that and authenticate your Windows Tailscale. You connect devices by using the "Tailscale" IP address for the device. ?This will work from device to device via the Internet or on your LAN. To find the Tailscal IP address for the desired device, again, right-click on the Tailscale Icon in the lower right tray and to the "Admin Console." ?Here you will find a slit of your devices, their status, and their TailScale IP address.

Re: K3NG arduino-based rotator interface via Pi4 with NodeRed?
On pain meds in hospital currently so if any typos in reply, I am sorry.?
I would recommend all external equipment to be connected to the Node Red server.?
Then Node Red server (PI4) be on same LAN as radio and other network equipment.?
Now when you want to access and monitor the dashboard you have several ways. The most secure is to use a VPN to access the LAN IP of the Pi followed by:1880/ui?
You can use a service such as TailScale which is free. TailScale allows only registered devices outside your LAN to access other registered devices on your LAN. You control the actual devices that have access via the TailScale VPN. So you can enable the Pi for TailScale and your remote laptop but not your home PC which may contain more secure information. Your decision.?
Another way is to password protect Node Red editor and dashboard then poorer forward a non-standard port to the Pi’s LAN’s Ip and port 1880. Not as secure as a VPN.?
Others can make decisions on various ways you can do it, then choose best method you would like.?

Hi Dave, I've now managed to access the various flows designed for my antenna switch, rotator and the KLA amp, and they all work but only when my laptop is connected to the same IP router that the RPi is. As soon as I connect from another IP address or internet router or via 4G there is no access to the flows. Any idea why that is?? ? <my flow.JPG>

Re: SVG Graphic Help - North Centered Rotator Graphic
I built a "Universal" Rotor Graphic. ?You will see all of the various options for each element. /g/nodered-hamradio/files/%211%21%20Flows%20by%20Type/SVG%20Based%20FlowsI loaded your image as the default. ?You will also see you can also "inject" different images. ?Just convert the PNG file to a base64, and add it to the available images to ia function, as shown in the other image examples. You must adjust the pointer bearings to work on the new image. The flow, with your image as the default, is attached.  Alan. WA9WUD
