# kappanhang
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
kappanhang remotely opens audio channels and a serial port to an Icom RS-BA1
|
||
|
|
server. The app is mainly developed for connecting to the Icom IC-705
|
||
|
|
transceiver, which has built-in Wi-Fi and RS-BA1 server. All features of the
|
||
|
|
protocol are implemented including packet retransmission on packet loss.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
kappanhang currently only supports Linux, but support for other platforms can
|
||
|
|
be easily added if anyone is interested (volunteers needed).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Compiling
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You'll need Go installed on your computer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
go get https://github.com/nonoo/kappanhang
|
||
|
|
go install https://github.com/nonoo/kappanhang
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Required settings on the RS-BA1 server (the transceiver)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Set the username to **beer** and the password to **beerbeer**.
|
||
|
|
These are fixed as the password encoding of the RS-BA1 protocol has not been
|
||
|
|
decrypted yet. See [passcode.txt](passcode.txt) for more information.
|
||
|
|
- Leave the **UDP ports** on their default values:
|
||
|
|
- Control port: 50001
|
||
|
|
- Serial port: 50002
|
||
|
|
- Audio port: 50003
|
||
|
|
- Leave the **Internet access line** on the default **FTTH** value.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Running
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can get the available command line parameters with the **-h** command line
|
||
|
|
argument.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If no command line arguments are set, then the app will try to connect to the
|
||
|
|
host **ic-705** (ic-705.local or ic-705.localdomain).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After it is connected and logged in:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- TODO: audio
|
||
|
|
- It starts a **TCP server** on port 4533 for exposing the **serial port**.
|
||
|
|
This can be used for controlling the server (the transceiver) with
|
||
|
|
[Hamlib](https://hamlib.github.io/):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
rigctld -m 3085 -r 127.0.0.1:4533
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3085 is the model number for the Icom IC-705. `rigctld` will connect to
|
||
|
|
kappanhang's TCP serial port server, and waits connections on it's default
|
||
|
|
TCP port 4532.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To use this with for example [WSJT-X](https://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjtx.html),
|
||
|
|
open WSJT-X settings, go to the *Radio* tab, set the *rig type* to **Hamlib NET
|
||
|
|
rigctl**, and the *Network server* to `127.0.0.1:4532`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the `-s` command line argument is specified, then kappanhang will create a
|
||
|
|
virtual serial port, so other apps which don't support Hamlib can access the
|
||
|
|
transceiver directly. Look at the app log to find out the name of the virtual
|
||
|
|
serial port.
