YateBTS / Re: BladeRF x40 + XB 300 + YateBTS

« on: August 22, 2017, 08:34:29 PM »

I'm in the same boat. Though I have had it running (I think) for short amounts of time with the XB 300.

I have put it down to a power issue and am currently trying to work out how to use the barrel jack to externally power the bladeRF as I don't think the USB has enough juice to power both the amp and bladeRF.

What is the problem you are having? have you been able to turn the amp on through bladeRF-cli?

Joe

Edit: So I've got it running, using external power into the jack adapter. Not sure it's transmitting, but through bladeRF-cli I've enabled it, turned it on, and then turned RF on. I assume it's working haha

Ahh ok, so what I'm doing is right?

Thank you for your help and patience with me!

I'm finally starting to learn my way around the software, and enjoying it!

If I log into the pi, I can't telnet into the bladeRF.

Code: [Select]

root@raspberrypi:/home/pi# telnet 127.0.0.1 5038
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
But if I run the command:

Code: [Select]

root@raspberrypi:/home/pi# yate -sd -vvvvv
root@raspberrypi:/home/pi# telnet 127.0.0.1 5038
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
Yate 5.5.1-develi r (http://YATE.null.ro) ready on raspberrypi.
ybts stop
That is the workaround I have for telnet. It also won't let me use the mbts rawconfig from within telnet without having ybts start first.

Ahh, thank you marian. I was starting yate from the pi home directory. I'm not able to telnet into it before starting the bts, then telnet into it and can stop and start it. Is this normal?

Hi,

How did you shut it down? Can you post a log with what happens after command is given?

Sorry Monica, didn't see your reply at first. This is the log, it just goes on a loop until power is pulled. I attempted the ybts start/stop as marian suggested, however was met with

Code: [Select]

bash: ybts: command not found
My usual (unsuccessful) shutdown procedure is below.

Code: [Select]

root@raspberrypi:/home/pi# yate shutdown

YateBTS / Re: Setting Rejection Code

« on: May 24, 2017, 05:10:02 PM »

brilliant marian, thank you very much. I will give it a try today.

Also may have solved my rejection issue. The code that's being issued is code 13, I think the lack of GSM network here was leaving the handset with nowhere else to go.

For reference I was issuing the command

yate shutdown

To attempt to shutdown the bts.

YateBTS / Re: Setting Rejection Code

« on: May 23, 2017, 07:23:46 PM »

Also had issues running the yate shutdown command.

Unit goes through shutdown procedure, shuts down but then re initializes, and goes through this loop until I unplug it. Any ideas on this? I'd put it down to USB 2.0 on the pi.

Been a bit time poor lately, getting back on to configuring this thing. 

I've set subscribers, but non subscribers just continuously get rejected by my BTS without going back to the real network.  Is there a workaround for this? Setting a rejection code to ensure they don't come back?

YateBTS / Re: Setting Rejection Code

« on: March 29, 2017, 06:54:03 PM »

Of course, complete mind blank on my part 

Thanks a lot for the answer, I'll give it a go and report back.

YateBTS / Setting Rejection Code

« on: March 28, 2017, 12:49:13 AM »

Hi all, I've currently followed the project set out at the page:

https://blog.strcpy.info/2016/04/21/building-a-portable-gsm-bts-using-bladerf-raspberry-and-yatebts-the-definitive-guide/

All seems to be working well, handsets can connect, calls can be made, sms' sent etc.
I'm wanting to set the rejection code to 13, roaming not allowed in this LA. I've had a look at the following thread:
http://forum.yate.ro/index.php?topic=296.0

I'm afraid I don't understand just what I'm supposed to change/set within the ybts:cpp, I understand this is the field, YBTSMM::locUpdTerminated(), but don't get where/what I'm supposed to do with it. I was going to try to reject all except for subscribers in List Subscribers field in NIB.

I've changed and re-compiled the nib.js file but that doesn't seem to be giving me much love there either, my lack of java knowledge wouldn't be helping my cause!

Anyone able to steer me in the right direction, or if you encountered the same, how did you resolve the issue?
