Public Beta (2022 02 07)

Post by VK3KYY » Mon Feb 07, 2022 6:20 am

There is a new public beta available

downloads/PublicBeta_20220207/firmware/

This version has 2 fixes from Daniel F1RMB

1. Attempt to fix the crash / reboot bug reported by some people, which may be caused by disabling the CC filter, or possibly if the radio confuses a non-DMR signal for a DMR signal and attemps to decode it
2. Fix to restore the last received TS when scanning with TS filter disabled.


Thanks to Daniel F1RMB for his tireless work.

BTW.

I may change the name of "CC Filter" to "CC Scan" becuase one of the reasons for this bug fix vesion is that people use CC filter for normal operation, but the function is not really a "filter" its a form of Scan algorithm.

But I will wait for some feedback from the people who experienced the crash / reboot problem before making changes to the names and also the voice prompt etc

Installed the new beta. Loaded the codeplug to the radio with the new CPS. Loaded latest KEPs
Radio is now running in RX promiscuous mode plus TS/CC off, suspend mode on, on our local DMR repeater. Let's see if the reboots occur again.

I'll keep you posted.

ok, however, I no longer encountered the transmission stop problem in dmr on the beta version prior to this one.
in my opinion the firmware work good.

Thanks Team.

I have already installed the new beta into my two GD-77 radios. No obvious issues. Since I have never seen the reboot problem, It should be all fine.
Thanks again.

Greetings to everyone!

I think it was completely logical to name it "CC filter."
After all, he really narrowed down the audible channel.
With such an approach, the "DMR filter" could also be called into question.

The more plus is that it also displays a logged-in color code.
Like the decoded DMR TG code with the DMR filter off.

Solving the underlying process is another matter.
It may not be clear to everyone that CC filter is turned off, it is a scanner mode actually.

It could even look like this:
CC F/S: Filter
CC F/S: Scan

I also thank all for yours persistent work!
All the best!

Zsolt

Greetings. I installed this new beta and after approximately 40 minutes, listening to a transmission from the traffic agents in dmr mode it restarted, strangely it doesn't restart during transmissions but when there is no transmission at all.
Normally I use it in echo mode 1, I decided to do a test and change to echo mode 5, to my surprise the radio is on for a few hours and has not restarted. Thanks to the developers for the dedication 73 to all
