It is used to con- nect to a receiver and/or transmitter and then the main SvxLink server can connect to the remote transceiver server via TCP/IP to get audio to/from it. It is also possible to link via RF instead of via TCP/IP. An example use of the latter would be if the repeater is placed in a remote location where there is no network. Then networked remote receivers can be linked up to the repeater via RF from a link site where network is available. The setup is pretty straight forward. The setup of a receiver or transmit- ter is done in the same way as in the SvxLink server so use the svxlink.conf(5) manual page as a reference for that. The remotetrx specific configuration is described in the remotetrx.conf(5) manual page. On the SvxLink server side you need to configure a networked re- ceiver/transmitter. That is described in the svxlink.conf(5) manual page in the Networked Receiver/Transmitter Section. If using multiple receivers you also want to configure a voter and make proper calibration of the signal level detector on each receiver. OPTIONS --help Print a help message and exit. --daemon Start the SvxLink remote receiver server as a daemon. --runasuser Start RemoteTrx as the specified user. The switch to the new user will happen after the log and pid files has been opened. --logfile=log file Specify a log file to put all output into. Both stdout and stderr will be redirected to the log file. --pidfile=pid file Specify a pid file to write the process ID into. --config=configuration file Specify which configuration file to use. FILES /etc/svxlink/remotetrx.conf (or deprecated /etc/remotetrx.conf) The system wide configuration file. See remotetrx.conf(5) for fur- ther details. ~/.svxlink/remotetrx.conf Per user configuration file. See remotetrx.conf(5) for further de- tails. /etc/svxlink/remotetrx.d/* Additional configuration files. This directory is setup by the CFG_DIR configuration variable. ENVIRONMENT ASYNC_AUDIO_NOTRIGGER Set this environment variable to 1 if you get an error about ioctl: Broken pipe during remotetrx server startup when using OSS audio. ASYNC_AUDIO_ALSA_ZEROFILL Set this environment variable to 1 to make the Alsa audio code write zeros to the audio device when there is no audio to write available. This may be needed for some audio devices that take a long time to recover from an underflow condition. HOME Used to find the per user configuration file.
