Is it possible to do remote programming or control of an IDAS repeater via IP?
With the release of the UC-FR5000 network card, it is possible to: • set up a repeater for trunking functionality, • program the trunking parameters; • carry out some simple diagnostics of the repeater like PLL temperature and power connection (requires an application to do this which we are developing now). The above can be done via IP connection. In the future, more advanced IP control features will be added to the system. As the UC-FR5000 is essentially a PC, it has the capacity to be upgraded with Icom and eventually third party applications to continually enhance the IDAS system.
