I often lose my cluster connection due to my unreliable internet service. Is there a keep alive mechanism? How about an auto reconnect feature? I didn't see anything in the configuration or docs.
I use ve7cc user to connect to a cluster because auto reconnect works well and I connect log4om to that for DX spots. This works fine except for sending spots. I can send spots directly to a cluster but not via ve7cc user. With log4om v1 I can send spots via ve7cc user. Is there a configuration I need to add?
Thanks, Glenn - KD0Q

Re: Cluster Connections
Glen,
When you edit your clusters there is a keep alive function in there.
Are you saying you cant send spots with CC User but you can Log4OM? That is strange.
One thing to note. Anytime you edit a cluster in your known servers list you need to remove it from active servers on bottom and re-add it. Because at this time the edits are not reflected if its already in the bottom box.

Re: Cluster Connections
Thanks Rich,
OK, I see the keep alive checkbox. Keep alive is not sufficient in my environment, I need auto reconnect as I occasionally get a Winsock error and the socket gets dropped. Ve7cc user does that so I make a connection from log4om using 127.0.0.1 port 7300 to ve7cc user. Worked great on log4om v1.
Sending spots is an issue from log4om v2 when using a connection to the local ve7cc user app. I can send a spot from ve7cc user. I can send a spot from log4om v1 via ve7cc user. I can send a spot to the same cluster from log4om v2 when connected directly. But I can't send a spot with log4om v2 via ve7cc user.
RR on the re-add after edit.

Re: Cluster Connections
Pretty sure you can telnet to cc user just like we did in V1. No luck with that?

Re: Cluster Connections
That's what I thought too. Sending a spot via ve7cc works with V1, doesn't with V2.
Actually, I'm 5 miles west of Traer out in the country and Internet is over a wireless link.

Re: Cluster Connections
Question ... did this cluster need a login to spot ? If so you have to set a call/password or it won´t
work. You can do this in the telnet window. If you use more than 1 cluster it could be possible that
the primary cluster [PRI] needs a login. The primary cluster is the way to send spots. So only an idea.
On my side all is fine whith sending spots.

Re: Cluster Connections
No login required. Only connected to 1 cluster - the local ve7cc user app. This works fine with Log4OM v1 but not v2.
Following is the scenario with info from the V2 Realtime Log.:
Create a custom cluster server for the local ve7cc app and save it.
[FormClusterManagement] : Saving cluster information 127.0.0.1:7300
From cluster_user.xml file:
<SingleCluster>
<ClusterName>local VE7CC User</ClusterName>
<HostAddress>127.0.0.1</HostAddress>
<Port>7300</Port>
<IsPrimary>false</IsPrimary>
<KeepAlive>true</KeepAlive>
<Commands>
<string>// use <callsign> command to send your callsign to the server.</string>
<string><CALLSIGN></string>
<string><PASSWORD></string>
<string>SH/DX 30</string>
</Commands>
<Callsign>KD0Q</Callsign>
<Password />
<Ssid>-10</Ssid>
<ClusterStatus>UserDefined</ClusterStatus>
</SingleCluster>
Add it as the only active server and connect:
[ClusterManagement] : Connecting cluster(s)...
[TelnetConnection] : 127.0.0.1:7300 Connecting to 127.0.0.1:7300
[TelnetConnection] : 127.0.0.1:7300 Telnet connection opened
[TelnetConnection] : 127.0.0.1:7300 IS PRIMARY
[ClusterManagement] : 127.0.0.1:7300 Cluster Login started
[ClusterManagement] : 127.0.0.1:7300 Cluster Login completed
Everything is fine so far, getting DX spots.
Here's what I see when sending a spot:
[ClusterManagement][SendMessage] : No primary telnet connection found for outbound messages
Any ideas?

Re: Cluster Connections
As far as I know we are not able to send spots by interaction to Cc user on the local pc, only to normal on line cluster servers.
I can't recall why but I am sure if it were possible Lele would have provided the opportunity
