For APRS and automatic transmission of coordinates over TCP-IP, you can use the same Xastir program, configured in a special way: 1\) In the Xastir menu, select the item "**interfaces**" - "**Interface control**" ![menu](https://ra1ahq.blog/images/1/5/f/1/f/15f1f7c3cf2a2055ed11f3b683c10b35b955f11b-iface.png) 2\) In the window, click the "Add" ![supplement](https://ra1ahq.blog/images/d/f/8/3/5/df835dd516305000e7dc5cae874c7832681d5bc9-tcpip1.png) 3\) Select the item "**Internet Server**" ![from the list of options, select Internet Server](https://ra1ahq.blog/images/a/1/e/6/b/a1e6b291576c53bea865ef9e6f0eb11337350fc8-add.png) 5\) Configure the interface: ![Configuring a TCP-IP APRS Server](https://ra1ahq.blog/images/a/0/5/3/9/a0539d62e86941d4f034cfd1b7d19fd714ce802b-tcpip2.png) - Allow transmitting -**Included** - Host -**194.186.45.251** - Port -**14580** - Pass-code -**your APRS password** - Filter parameters -**m/500** - Comment - any comment, for example "**APRS Russia**" - Reconnect on net failure -**Included** And press "OK" --- Note: I received the APRS password (pass-code) by sending a copy of my certificate of callsign formation to the APRS-IS website. Now this procedure [simplified](http://n5dux.com/ham/aprs-passcode/). 6\) In the menu **File - Configure - Timing** check that the sending of packages is with a long period - for stationary objects once every 15-30 minutes, for mobile objects - once every 1-5 minutes. ![Intervals](https://ra1ahq.blog/images/9/8/1/c/e/981ce824a580a329c06fe09a0911ee35c0b04051-timing.png) 7\) Specify the coordinates of the station on the map. For more information, see [Article](https://ra1ahq.blog/ispolzovanie-xastir-dlya-aprs). 8\) In the menu **Interfaces - Interface control** disable all interfaces except the TCP-IP that you just created. To do this, go inside each item and uncheck the boxes "Activate on startup" - unchecked (OFF) "Allow transmitting" - unchecked (OFF) 9\) Activate the interface "Internet Server" - set the checkboxes: "Activate on startup" - checked (ON) "Allow transmitting" - checked (ON) 10\) B **File - Configure - Station** check the station settings, in particular the SSID (-5 for TCP-IP) 11\) Now you need to enable the interface in the menu **Interfaces** - choose our interface - **Start** ![launching](https://ra1ahq.blog/images/d/d/2/8/5/dd285734fda73e63e6d9f160e8af5dbd0b7150cc-yellow.png) If everything is fine, the interface will change to the "UP". 12\) Perform a one-time transfer of coordinates **Interfaces - Transmit Now!** ### Possible problems and solutions 1. If the coordinates are not transmitted, the interface in the **Interfaces** will be in a state of **"ERROR"**. This means that an error has occurred: there is no connection to the APRS server (the Internet can be checked with the ping command 194.186.45.251). Check your network connection. As soon as the Internet is available, APRS data transmission will begin. 2. If the server is not responding for some reason (which is unlikely), you can specify other options as the IP address. #### APRS Server Table: ® **APRS Server** ® **Description** ® ®---®---® ® **`euro.aprs2.net`** ® Tier 2 APRS Server Pool for Europe ® ® **`rotate.aprs2.net`** ® Tier 2 APRS Server Pool for the World ® ® **`194.186.45.251`** ® Server T2RUSSIA ® ® **`149.202.150.167`** ® Server T2FRACE ® ® **`85.188.1.129`** ® Server T2FINLAND ® The full list of T2 APRS servers is in the archive (T2 - Tier2 servers of the second tier).
