| Also, if non-GPS-based operation is all that is needed, just the use of redundancy within the clients is sufficient, and does not require any use of the server redundancy features. | | Also, if non-GPS-based operation is all that is needed, just the use of redundancy within the clients is sufficient, and does not require any use of the server redundancy features. |

| + | =Voter Recording and Playback= |
| + | chan_voter has the ability to record VOTER streams by the channel driver live on the air (using the 'voter record' command in Asterisk). This also records time-stamped data and the voted receiver at that particular time along with RSSI readings. This can then be played back using the VoterPal GUI JAVA applet. |
| + | |
| + | ==How to setup playback== |
| + | # Download the [https://allstarlink.org/voterpal/VoterPal.jar VoterPal application]. |
| + | # Download the [https://allstarlink.org/voterpal/lib/appframework-1.0.3.jar appframework-1.0.3.jar] and [https://allstarlink.org/voterpal/lib/swing-worker-1.1.jar swing-worker-1.1.jar] files. Place these in a folder called lib in the same directory as the VoterPal application |
| + | # Run VoterPal.jar. You may come across issues with running Java such as security permissions. Most of these can be allowed. |
| + | # Once running, you will see the applications GUI. File > Open to select your voter data files. A bunch of test files have been made already to test [https://allstarlink.org/voterpal/datafiles/ here] |

| + | ==== Activity ==== |
| + | This will show time-stamped information including RSSI of the selected VOTER client within the recorded data stream |
| + | |
| + | ==== Voter Clients ==== |
| + | This will show the real time voted client. This is also dependent of the Mode setting |
| + | |
| + | ==== Mode ==== |
| + | Various modes can be selected in VoterPal |
| + | |
| + | 0 - Normal Voting Mode |
| + | |
| + | 1 - Randomly pick which client of all that are receiving at the max RSSI value to use |
| + | |
| + | > 1 - Cycle thru all the clients that are receiving at the max RSSI value with a cycle time of (test mode - 1) frames. In other words, if you set it to 2, it will change every single frame. If you set it to 11, it will change every 10 frames. This is a serious torture test. |
| + | |
| + | < 0 - Any value less than zero will force select the Voter Client (i.e. -1 is the first client, -2 is the 2nd client) |
| + | |
| + | ==== Reset ==== |
| + | Resets the file back to start |
| + | |
| + | ==== Play ==== |
| + | Plays the recorded file |
| + | |
| + | ==== Stop ==== |
| + | Stops the current playing file in it's current position |
| + | |
| + | ==== CTCSS Filter Enable ==== |
| + | Removes CTCSS hum from any recorded audio stream |
| + | |
| + | ==== File Play Position ==== |
| + | Drag this slider to skip |
