Hi,
I 'm thinking about implementing SunSDR with NODE RED server- dashboard, what do you think?

Hi,
I did simple dashboard with the integration to EESDR3 software a few months ago You can find the Dashboard screenshot on my qrz.com.
The flow which I use for TRX part, you can find in the attached files.

Hi Mek,
Exactly.. Only I would try to connect PGXL,TGXL Antenna Genius and Rotator genius..How did you connect SunSDR via Kenwood CAT
protocol or TCI? Have you tried using Stream Deck?
Any advice is welcome

I have used TCI as a communication protocol with EESDR3 software and SunSDR2Dx. I spent quite a lot of time to find the correct solution, but finally it works. TCI is based on Websockets, so you can use standard websocket nodes to do that.

I have seen the Flex Node-Red and i was thinking of making the complete TCI for Node-Red.

Maybe we should use your flow as a start point to make it a Node-Red library? Then different people could make nice dashboards etc.

I want to use Node-Red using TCI to experiment with other software and to quickly test proof of concepts etc. But a library is useful for other people too.

Hi,
The idea of creating TCI Node-Red library is really good, but keep in mind that creating library is totally different story then creating flows. Right now I dont have knowledge how to do that. Anyway, you can use my concept as as good starting point. If you have any question relate to my flow let me know, I can easilly explain most parts.

I'm know that the Flows vs a library is different.

But if it's ok with you i'll adopt ypur flow and add all the latest TCI commands. Then we can see if its any point making it a library or just a regular flow.

Can you repost that node-red flow in proper json format? The file you linked to does not seem to work as json. I am looking for a node-red TCI implimentation.

Thanks, Gary

has anyone finally succeeded in implementing Node-red over TCI? Like Gary said, the file on the post is not in JSON format, node red does not parse it. I am looking to remote my complete station, SunSdr2DX, expert amplifier, antennas and a K3, the missing link is TCI control

I used some node-red script posted in this forum and adapted it a bit.

Then i can use MQTT and/or websocket from a remote computer to control my radio and also access my tuner without RDP/VNC/ERS

You can set/get almost all the TCI commands but the work flow you have to glue together your selves.

I can post it on github and we could make it a little more userfriendly for everyone.
I also have some CW arguments and the tuner flow is for my I3VHF loop antenna.

My idea was to first implement the complete TCI list and then make a MQTT/websocket addon so that you can control the radio without using i.e RDP/VNC

That is excellent. I am not a programmer, and quite new to Node-red, but the idea of a github posting is good. MQTT/Web socket would be a neater way to control the radio. i have a flow for my HF auto tuner, and my SPE amp, I'm pretty sure I could glue them asll together somehow.

Hi Mak

That txt file will not import into Node-red, nor will it work after converting to jsom

the pastebin link works but you have to install the dependencies and also remove a json error.

I'll post a cleaned up version later today. I used this to make a library for all the tci commands. Almost finished with alle the commands then you can use this as a base to make good gui etc.
