ALERT: iOS 1.13 bug …

In the TimedEvents section “Hourly” events are not saving properly and are being reverted to “Daily” with incorrect timing. Upgrade your RedNode software to API V 22 to apply a work around. The code in iOS will get fixed in the forthcoming release 1.14.

NEW: Long press setup items for explanation

In mobile app release 1.13 (Android will catch up soon), in the “AllStar/Echolink setup” screen – long press on any setup item to activate a popup that gives a little more explanation of the purpose fo the item.

ClearNode 1.13 for iOS and RedNode API 21 released

This release introduces Timed Events – the ability to automate connecting and disconnecting from remote nodes on an hourly, daily, weekly or monthly basis. Behind the scenes Timed Events uses the “Cron Job” system on your Linux Raspberry Pi – thus Timed Events supports arbitrary jobs which you can define as a “command”.

We’ve also extended the AllStar/Echolink setup screen – you now have a little more fine grained control over Duplex, Voice telemetry and Voice announcements.
