k0hax-d578uv

This is a python library designed to interface to an AnyTone™ AT-D578UV radio's Microphone port serial connection.

Features

  • Control the radio's PTT line
  • Send keypad button presses
  • Continuously monitor the radio's state
  • Perform callbacks on RX sense

Examples

Control PTT

from d578uv import d578uv
radio = d578uv.d578uv('/dev/ttyUSB0')

# Transmit for 5 seconds
radio.Tx(5)

# Transmit until told to stop transmitting
radio.Tx()

# Stop transmitting, enter receive mode
radio.Rx()

Wiring

In order to determine which UART commands needed to be sent to the radio, and how the radio responds, I used a Bus Pirate by Dangerous Prototypes
I also built a small Cat5 cable breakout that split the cable between the radio and microphone, and allowed me to probe it while it was in operation.

Notes

  • A single 0x06 packet is sent approximately once per second by the microphone to the radio as a type of keepalive
