###############################################################################
; The following parameters specify how the radio is interfaced to the computer
; All are required
;

; This variable creates a new port.  It should occur once and only once for 
; each port in the system.  All of the port variables following this line
; will apply to this and only this port.  Spaces are not allowed in port names.
CreatePort = Echolink

; The following variable selects the method thelinkbox will use to key your
; transmitter:
;
; NB: On FreeBSD RTS is *active* when no program is running, so it's probably
; not a good idea to use RTS for PTT on FreeBSD.  
;
; 0 - none
; 1 - WB2REM / VA3TO style serial EchoLink interface boards
; 2 - Parallel port (IRLP interface)
; 3 - RTS
; 4 - DTR
; 5 - USB Audio dongle GPIO
TxKeyMethod = 1

; The following variable selects the method thelinkbox will use to determine
; if your receiver is receiving a signal:
; 0 - none
; 1 - Vox
; 2 - Parallel port (IRLP interface)
; 3 - serial port CTS
; 4 - serial port DSR
; 5 - serial port DCD
; 6 - device supporting /dev/input such as USB HID (Linux only)
; 7 - USB device GPIO (use method 6 for the iMic)
RxCosMethod = 1

; Set the following variable to 1 if this port is a repeater.  When 
; RepeaterPort is set the port's receiver is automatically linked to the
; port's transmitter on startup.  Additionally the .unlink all and .unlink rf
; commands will not tear down the repeater link. The link can still be 
; broken by a explicit .unlink command.
;RepeaterPort = 0


; The following variable selects the method thelinkbox will use control the
; radio associated with this port. 
; 0 - none
; 1 - Doug Hall protocol via parallel port (also set DH_DataBit, DH_ClockBit)
; 2 - Doug Hall protocol via USB device GPIO (also set DH_DataBit, DH_ClockBit)
;
RadioCtrlMethod = 0

; The following variable selects the method thelinkbox will use to determine
; if a CTCSS tone is present on a received signal.  Note: must use the same
; hardware interface as RxCosMethod, i.e. if the RxCosMethod is a line on
; the serial port then RxCtcssMethod must be a different line on the same
; serial port.
; 0 - none
; 1 - Software CTCSS decoder
; 2 - Parallel port (IRLP interface)
; 3 - serial port CTS
; 4 - serial port DSR
; 5 - serial port DCD
; 6 - device supporting /dev/input such as USB HID (Linux only)
; 7 - USB device GPIO (use method 6 for the iMic)
RxCtcssMethod = 0

; If you would like to add an CTCSS tone to the output audio stream you
; can set the following variables.  NB: CTCSS tones are low frequencies
; that will not be passed correctly by the microphone input of most radios.
; 0 - Software CTCSS generation disabled
; 1 - Mix CTCSS tone on audio output
TxCtcssMethod = 0

; CTCSS output level for TxCtcssMethod 1:  
; 0 = no output, 32768 = full scale output.
CTCSSLevel = 1000

; The following variable sets the mode of CTCSS operation.
; 0 - Carrier squelch only
; 1 - Carrier and CTCSS
; 2 - Carrier or CTCSS
; 3 - CTCSS only
; 4 - Carrier and NO CTCSS (anti-CTCSS)
;
; Mode 1 requires both CTCSS and carrier detect for the squelch to open, this
;   is the mode typically used for CTCSS access.
;
; Mode 2 is sometimes useful when the carrier squelch is tight, in this mode
;   the carrier squelch must open to begin reception, but the presence of
;   CTCSS is enough to hold the squelch open.
;
; Mode 3 only requires CTCSS to open the squelch, COS is ignored. This 
;   usually provides the most sensitive squelch.
;
; Mode 4 (Anti-CTCSS) maybe useful for a carrier squelch repeater with 
;   overlapping coverage with a repeater that requires CTCSS.
;
; Note: Modes 2 and 3 usually result in an unacceptably long squelch tails
;   when used with transmitters that do not implement reverse burst.
;RxCTCSSMode = 1

; The following variable selects the method thelinkbox will use to decode
; DTMF tones:
; 0 - none
; 1 - WB2REM / VA3TO style serial EchoLink interface boards
; 2 - IRLP parallel port interface
; 3 - Software based DTMF decoder
; 4 - Event based DTMF decoding from USB HID device (See DTMF_x_KeyCode)
; 5 - Asterisk DTMF tunnelling protocol (Voip ports only) 
DtmfMethod = 1

; The name of the audio device to use:
;  Typical values for the first sound card:
;    FreeBSD /dev/dsp0
;    Redhat Linux /dev/dsp
;
; If the audio device is an USB audio dongle you may set AudioDevice
; to "auto" to have thelinkbox figure out the proper device audio device
; 
AudioDevice = /dev/dsp0

; The following variable defines if this port is linked to incoming VoIP 
; connections automatically.  If LinkVoipIn is set to zero on all ports then
; inbound VoIP connections will not link to any port automatically allowing
; the connections to be managed by scripts and commands entered by the VoIP 
; user.
;LinkVoipIn = 1

; The following variable defines if this port is linked to outgoing VoIP 
; connections automatically.
;LinkVoipOut = 1

; Transmitter hang time (carrier delay).  Amount of time transmitter PTT is 
; held active after inputs have stopped in milliseconds.
HangTime = 0

; Transmitter timeout timer in seconds.  Set to zero to disable timeouts

; id of the ToneSpec of tone to play on transmitter timeout
;TxTimeoutTone = 101

; Receiver timeout timer in seconds.  Set to zero to disable timeouts.
RxTimeout = 0

; id of the ToneSpec of tone to play on receiver timeout
;RxTimeoutTone = 101

; When CtoneResetsTimeout = 0 the transmitter timeout timer is reset when 
; the transmitter unkeys. By setting CtoneResetsTimeout = 1 the timeout timer 
; is reset when the courtesy tone is played.  
; Typically this is used on a repeater to discourage long winded transmissions 
; without requiring user to wait for the hangtime to expire.
CtoneResetsTimeout = 0;

; If the sound board input is connected directly to the discriminator of your
; receiver set this variable.
;
;DiscFeed = 1

; If the sound board input is connected directly to the discriminator of an
; FM receiver then set this variable.  Audio sent across VoIP links should be
; flat, setting this variable applys deemphasis to the received signal to
; cancel the preemphasis applied by the FM transmitter. 
;RxDeemphasis = 0

; If the sound board output is connected directly to an FM modulator then 
; set this variable.  If the sound board output is connected to the microphone
; input of an FM transmitter do not set this variable since the transmitter
; itself will apply the preemphasis.
;TxPreemphasis = 0

; Set the following variable to insert an high pass filter in the 
; transmitter's audio path to prevent received CTCSS tones from being repeated.
; The filter is disabled by default for physical ports and enabled by default 
; for VoIP ports.  Note: to avoid excessive rolloff of the lower end of the 
; voice frequency range the filter is designed to filter out tone frequencies 
; of 203.5 and lower, 250 Hz is only attenuated by 6.6 db.  This provides an 
; attenuation of .75 db at 300 hz and essentially no attenuation at 500 hz.
;TxCtcssFilter = 1

; If the sound board input is connected to an audio source that is not gated 
; by COS (it has noise on it when no one is talking) then set this 
; variable, optional.
;
; An interesting problem occurs when the input audio source is unsquelched,
; namely you may hear a "squelch tail" at the beginning of transmissions!
; This is caused by the asynchronous nature of the COS signal in relationship
; to the audio input buffer.  When UngatedRx is set the first audio buffer
; following the rising edge of COS is tossed to eliminate leading squelch tails.
;UngatedRx = 1

; Set the following variable to stop DTMF transmissions to this port's 
; transmitter.  This is typically set for repeater and remote base ports and 
; unset for link ports.
MuteDTMF = 1

; The minimum amount of time between repeated digits in milliseconds. Users
; in marginal areas, marginal decoders, incorrect levels or other problems 
; can cause a single DTMF digit held longer than the decoder's decode time 
; to be decoded multiple times.  This variable specifies a minimum delay time 
; between identical digits for them to be accepted as distinct entries. 
;MinDtmfInterdigitTime = 100

; Some user's voices sound enough like touchtones to cause false decodes. If
; MuteDTMF is active such false decodes will cause the user's transmission 
; to be muted for DTMFCommandTimeout unless something is done about it.
; The following two variables attempt to mitigate such problems.
;
; The following variable defines the minimum amount of time in millisedconds 
; that a DTMF digit that initiates a DTMF command sequence is held.  If the 
; digit (or voice false) is decoded for less than this time a DTMF command 
; sequence is not started and if the audio was muted by MuteDTMF it is 
; unmuted.  This minimum only applies to the first digit of a command 
; sequence, the remaining digits may be entered as fast as the decoder will 
; take them.
; Min1stDigitHoldTime = 250
;
; The following variable defines which DTMF digits start a DTMF command
; sequence.  For command lists that start all command sequences with a common 
; digit there is no point in muting audio for anything other than that digit.  
; By default all digits start a DTMF command sequence.
;Dtmf1stDigits = *#

; The following variable specifies a tone to play while a audio is muted
; because a DTMF command sequence is in progress.  The tone is cancelled
; automatically when the command sequence is completed.
;DtmfCoverTone = 106

; The following variable specifies if CTCSS is required to enter DTMF commands.
;
; 0 - CTCSS not required (even if CTCSS is enabled by RxCTCSSMode)

; 2 - CTCSS always required
;
;DtmfCTCSSMode = 1

; The following variable assigns a prefix that must be entered before DTMF
; commands are decoded.  When the prefix is decoded the DtmfCoverTone will
; start and command will be accepted until the PrefixTimeout expires.
;DTMFPrefix = *#A

; The following variable provides an alternate to DtmfCoverTone when a 
; DTMFPrefix is used.  The DtmfCoverTone begins running when any DTMF digit
; is decoded and continues running as long as digits are being entered.
; The PrefixedTone starts when the DTMFPrefix is decoded, but ends when
; the first command digit is decoded.
;PrefixedTone = 104

; Prefix timeout in milliseconds.  This variable defines how long the 
; prefix remains active without entering a command.  Once a command has been 
; entered the prefix remains  active until a DTMFCommandTimeout occurs.
