R The sample config file was getting pretty messy
R with the Windows and Linux differences.
R It would be a maintenance burden to keep most of
R two different versions in sync.
R This common source is now used to generate the

C# Consult the User Guide for more details on configuration options.

C#
C# These are the most likely settings you might change:
C#
C# (1) MYCALL - call sign and SSID for your station.
C#
C# Look for lines starting with MYCALL and
C# change NOCALL to your own.
C#
C# (2) PBEACON - enable position beaconing.
C#
C# Look for lines starting with PBEACON and
C# modify for your call, location, etc.
C#
C# (3) DIGIPEATER - configure digipeating rules.
C#
C# Look for lines starting with DIGIPEATER.
C# Most people will probably use the given example.
C# Just remove the "#" from the start of the line
C# to enable it.
C#
C# (4) IGSERVER, IGLOGIN - IGate server and login
C#
C# Configure an IGate client to relay messages between
C# radio and internet servers.
C#
C#
C# The default location is "direwolf.conf" in the current working directory.
L# On Linux, the user's home directory will also be searched.
C# An alternate configuration file location can be specified with the "-c" command line option.

C# Many people will simply use the default sound device.
C# Some might want to use an alternative device by chosing it here.
C#
W# When the Windows version starts up, it displays something like
W# this with the available sound devices and capabilities:
W#
W# Available audio input devices for receive (*=selected):
W# * 0: Microphone (C-Media USB Headpho (channel 2)
W# 1: Microphone (Bluetooth SCO Audio
W# 2: Microphone (Bluetooth AV Audio)
W# * 3: Microphone (Realtek High Defini (channels 0 & 1)
W# Available audio output devices for transmit (*=selected):
W# * 0: Speakers (C-Media USB Headphone (channel 2)
W# 1: Speakers (Bluetooth SCO Audio)
W# 2: Realtek Digital Output(Optical)
W# 3: Speakers (Bluetooth AV Audio)
W# * 4: Speakers (Realtek High Definiti (channels 0 & 1)
W# 5: Realtek Digital Output (Realtek
W#
W# Example: To use the microphone and speaker connections on the
W# system board, either of these forms can be used:
W
W#ADEVICE High
W#ADEVICE 3 4
W
W
W# Example: To use the USB Audio, use a command like this with
W# the input and output device numbers. (Remove the # comment character.)
W#ADEVICE USB
W
W# The position in the list can change when devices (e.g. USB) are added and removed.
W# You can also specify devices by using part of the name.
W# Here is an example of specifying the USB Audio device.
W# This is case-sensitive. Upper and lower case are not treated the same.

L# Linux ALSA is complicated. See User Guide for discussion.
L# To use something other than the default, generally use plughw
L# and a card number reported by "arecord -l" command. Example:
L
L# ADEVICE plughw:1,0
L
L# Starting with version 1.0, you can also use "-" or "stdin" to
L# pipe stdout from some other application such as a software defined
L# radio. You can also specify "UDP:" and an optional port for input.
L# Something different must be specified for output.

C# Multiple channels can have the same or different names.
C#
C# It can be up to 6 letters and digits with an optional ssid.

C# Pick a suitable modem speed based on your situation.
C# 1200 Most common for VHF/UHF. Default if not specified.

C# On HF SSB, you might want to use multiple demodulators on slightly different
C# frequencies to compensate for stations off frequency. Here we have 7 different
C# demodulators at 30 Hz intervals. This takes a lot of CPU power so you will
C# probably need to reduce the audio sampling rate with the /n option.

C# DON'T connect it directly!
C#
C# For the PTT command, specify the device and either RTS or DTR.
C# RTS or DTR may be preceded by "-" to invert the signal.
C# Both can be used for interfaces that want them driven with opposite polarity.

C# VIRTUAL TNC SERVER PROPERTIES #
C# #
C#############################################################
C
C#
C# Dire Wolf acts as a virtual TNC and can communicate with
C# client applications by different protocols:
C#
C# - the "AGW TCPIP Socket Interface" - default port 8000
C# - KISS protocol over TCP socket - default port 8001
W# - KISS TNC via serial port
L# - KISS TNC via pseudo terminal (-p command line option)
C#
C
CAGWPORT 8000
CKISSPORT 8001
C
W#
W# Some applications are designed to operate with only a physical
W# TNC attached to a serial port. For these, we provide a virtual serial
W# port that appears to be connected to a TNC.
W#
W# Take a look at the User Guide for instructions to set up
W# two virtual serial ports named COM3 and COM4 connected by
W# a null modem.
W#
W# Using the configuration described, Dire Wolf will connect to
W# COM3 and the client application will use COM4.

C# BEACONING PROPERTIES #
C# #
C#############################################################
C
C
C#
C# Beaconing is configured with these two commands:
C#
C# PBEACON - for a position report (usually yourself)
C# OBEACON - for an object report (usually some other entity)
C#
C# Each has a series of keywords and values for options.
C# See User Guide for details.
C#
C# Example:
C#
C# This results in a broadcast once every 10 minutes.
C# Every half hour, it can travel via two digipeater hops.
C# The others are kept local.
C#
C
C#PBEACON delay=1 every=30 overlay=S symbol="digi" lat=42^37.14N long=071^20.83W power=50 height=20 gain=4 comment="Chelmsford MA" via=WIDE1-1,WIDE2-1

C#
C# When the destination field is set to "SPEECH" the information part is
C# converted to speech rather than transmitted as a data frame.

C# INTERNET GATEWAY #
C# #
C#############################################################
C
C# First you need to specify the name of a Tier 2 server.
C# The current preferred way is to use one of these regional rotate addresses:
C
C# noam.aprs2.net - for North America
C# soam.aprs2.net - for South America
C# euro.aprs2.net - for Europe and Africa
C# asia.aprs2.net - for Asia
C# aunz.aprs2.net - for Oceania
C
C#IGSERVER noam.aprs2.net
C
C# You also need to specify your login name and passcode.
C# Contact the author if you can't figure out how to generate the passcode.
C
C#IGLOGIN WB2OSZ-5 123456
C
C# That's all you need for a receive only IGate which relays
C# messages from the local radio channel to the global servers.
C
C# Some might want to send an IGate client position directly to a server
C# without sending it over the air and relying on someone else to
C# forward it to an IGate server. This is done by using sendto=IG rather
C# than a radio channel number. Overlay R for receive only, T for two way.
C
C#PBEACON sendto=IG delay=0:30 every=60:00 symbol="igate" overlay=R lat=42^37.14N long=071^20.83W
C#PBEACON sendto=IG delay=0:30 every=60:00 symbol="igate" overlay=T lat=42^37.14N long=071^20.83W
C
C
C# To relay messages from the Internet to radio, you need to add
C# one more options with the transmit channel number and a VIA path.
C
C#IGTXVIA 0 WIDE1-1
C
C# The APRS Internet Server (APRS-IS) has its own idea about what you
C# should be transmitting. This includes "messages" addressed to stations
C# recently heard in your area. For special situations, you can subscribe
C# to
C# decrease what you are already subscribed to. This is known as a server
C# side filter. Read here: http://www.aprs-is.net/javaprsfilter.aspx
C# Example, positions and objects within 50 km of my location:
C
C#IGFILTER m/50
C
C# Sometimes the server will send you more than you want. You can also apply
C# local filtering to limit what will be transmitted on the RF side.
C# For example, transmit only "messages" (which is the default) on channel 0
C# and weather reports on channel 1.
C
C#FILTER IG 0 i/30
C#FILTER IG 1 t/wn
C
C# Finally, we don't want to flood the radio channel.
C# The IGate function will limit the number of packets transmitted
C# during 1 minute and 5 minute intervals. If a limit would
C# be exceeded, the packet is dropped and message is displayed in red.
