First time node setup

Ok, we know that is loading.
Now ediiting your rpt.conf.
You must insert the correct driver details for the node you want to set-up

I’m not sure what it defaults to with the set-up program.
But likely looks something like this…
I am showing options here and all are commented out except one with a semicolon “;”
Replace 29285 with the node nu in question in both places for you need to load the SimpleUSB driver details here and after the "/"tells us which definition inside the file to load.for this node… usb_29285.

[29285] ;assigned node number UHF repeater
;rxchannel = dahdi/pseudo
rxchannel = SimpleUSB/usb_29285 ; Rx audio/signalling channel
;rxchannel = Radio/usb_29285

save

Now editing SimpleUSB.conf you will have something that looks like this for the node in question and yo can ignore the later lives in my example because you are not setting up like me.

[usb_29285] ;<case sensitive must match that in rpt.config as the signaling channel
pp7=ptt
pp12=cor

eeprom = 0 ; EEPROM installed: 0,1
; 0 = no (default)
; 1 = yes

hdwtype = 0 ; Leave this set to 0 for USB sound fobs modified using
; the instructions from usbfob.pdf. Use a setting of
; 1 is for Dingotel/Sph interfaces.

duplex = 1 ; Duplex / 0 - half duplex / 1 - full duplex

; Receiver parameters

;carrierfrom=no
;carrierfrom=dsp
;carrierfrom=pp
carrierfrom=ppinvert
;carrierfrom=usb < you are wanting to use
;carrierfrom=usbinvert < one of these by uncommenting for COR
;carrierfrom=vox

There are more options inside this file but I can’t say what you need.
You will need to follow directions from the wiki on setting up your radio interface ptt/cor inside this file under the node definition for each.

When you run the radiotune, it will generate a file with ‘Simpleusb_tune_usb_29285’ in the file name for the node in question.with the parameters generated from the program.

So, if you are still having issues…
have you been following the instructions from the wiki ?

if not, what have you been following.so we can see it.
Come back and tell us where you are.

If you are stuck in the same place, it may be a file ownership/permission issue in the SimpleUSB.conf ?

But I should ask if you started the menu with a sudo…
sudo asl-menu

Because it cant write to files without permission and using sudo is the only way to get it.
