This is the working page for IMBE Link.

Features

1.0

First version, needs to incorporate the basics of PNXmono, but in a modular format.

  • config file in a traditional unixy format. No stupid C# bullshits
  • Support for p25 data via STUN to cisco doing HDLC to the 9600 bps quantar v.24 interface.
  • Two operational modes
    • Traditional link, where the quantar does local repeat and the application handles network linking.
    • Base station mode, the quantar does not repeat anything, the app repeats all data to the quantar, like an analog controller.
      • In base mode, it can limit encrypted audio locally too, or force rewriting of talkgroup/messages
  • Support for talk group scanning
    • This would be a registration and priority matrix for individual talk groups
    • support for talk back with ability to define the hang time
  • Ability to block encryption or allow encryption (force encryption?)
  • Courtesy tones as files - allow them to be defined
  • Proxy of v.24 frames, only the IMBE data should be passed to the Quantar, control data should be stripped out
    • prevents channel changes
  • mute when RSSI/QOI value is below a given value (perhaps play a tone here?)
  • stats collected and ASTRO ID recorded
  • improved logging and debugging
  • output status of system via named pipe/logic on pi.
    • this would be used to block the system on P25 only for a set period of time.
    • Could be accomplished via channel change too.
    • Ideally would make the mixed mode operation easier without as many wildcard functions.

2.0

  • FDTI to Quantar v.24 interface.
  • recording of conversations and metadata
  • Bridge system
  • * This would be a confederation of linking and registration servers to reflect the traffic
  • System Wide Stats dashboard

3.0

  • Asterisk channel driver
