Pi and mobilinkd

Jeremy West All Messages By This Member #245 Hello, I am trying to make a mobinkd tnc2 work with a raspberry pi 4 running YAAC. I am fairly new to both APRS and raspberry pi (linux)? can you please help?me with this? Thanks? 73's Jeremy West? W7TIC
Andrew P. All Messages By This Member #246 Greetings. You have two options here. If you bind the Mobilinkd TNC to your Pi using their Bluetooth drivers, you can use the Serial_TNC port type. However, if you have Bluetooth connectivity dropouts, this may hang or crash YAAC. Another option is to use the Bluetooth plugin for YAAC and thereby let YAAC manage the Bluetooth connection (and deal with flakiness thereof) with the Bluetooth_TNC port type. It has a limited set of native libraries, so I'm not sure if the included armv5 library will work on a Pi4, but you can try it. No guarantees; I don't own that particular hardware, so I can't test it. Hope this helps. Andrew, KA2DDO author of YAAC
Jeremy West All Messages By This Member #247 You said you don't know if the second option would work for pi 4, do you know if it would for the pi 3? It sounds like the second option you gave me would be the more stable if I can make that work would you agree? toggle quoted message Show quoted text On Thu, Apr 16, 2020, 7:15 AM Andrew P. <andrewemt@...> wrote: Greetings.

Andrew P. All Messages By This Member #248 开云体育 I'm not sure. I've only tested the Bluetooth plugin on Microsoft Windows and Debian Linux (Intel processors). So I don't know which Pi processors the ARM native library will work on. Please, try it on any Pi version you want, and let me know if it does or doesn't work so I can update the documentation.
