.Net 7.0 Version*:
OruxPalsLinux
Short about: This is the OruxPalsServer (APRS-IS Server) specially written for OruxMaps Android Application (6.5.5+ for AIS and 7.0.0rc9+ for APRS) and HAM APRS. The server can receive position from OruxMaps application by GPSGate (HTTP GET) protocol, MapMyTracks protocol or APRS protocol (via TCP). Server stores received positions and send it to all clients connected by AIS or APRS. So you can watch on the map user position in real time as vessels (by AIS) or as aprs icons (by APRS) with names. Also you can see real-time-tracking in your browser by link.
To connect and send position to the server client must have unical name and password, which can be generated by server administrator.
Real time tracking:
Users can upload their positions to the server by GPSGate (HTTP GET & TCP FRS),
MapMyTracks or APRS protocols, and their position will immediately broadcast to all
connected AIS or APRS clients. You can see all objects and clients realtime by the web in your browser.
You can get direct link to object and share it.
APRS clients can specify filters to pass or block incoming users positions from server.
So if you have some groups of users that should not receive positions from another
group, you can use it.
Most-used static objects (Everytime Objects): Server can send to each APRS user global objects (to each user) from XML file.
Route mode (Static Objects): Server can send nearest (in km range) static objects to each APRS client (client need to upload position by APRS). Static objects could be loaded from XML, KML or selected from SQLite.
Server also can filter sending data to each client with specified user filters:
- range filter for static objects (me/10/50);
- name filters to pass or block incoming positions from users or static objects (+sw/ +ew/ +fn/ -sw/ -ew/ -fn/).
On-Air function: You can connect to OruxPalsServer with specially written OruxPalsAir client to receive AFSK 1200 AX.25 packets from Air and send them through your SoundCard Direct Input/Output. So OruxPalsServer can receive/send AFSK packets. But:
- server will send packets to Air (OruxPalsAir client) directly received from APRS clients only; no from Global APRS, MapMyTracks, GPSGate or FRS. So if you connected to server with OruxMaps only APRS packets will be translated to Air;
- if aprs2global==yes all packets received from Air (OruxPalsAir client) will be directly forwarded to global APRS;
- there is no callsign/user replaces for incoming packets from air. So if callsign specified in in system user name will be as in air packet callsign, not !
