SSH conect to flex 6600 ... credential issue

Member ✭✭
in SmartSDR API

I tried to connect my flex using ssh but the immediat answer is

"↵↵---------------------------------------------------------------------↵Your flow credentials file is encrypted using a system-generated key.↵↵If the system-generated key is lost for any reason, your credentials↵file will not be recoverable, you will have to delete it and re-enter↵your credentials.↵↵You should set your own key using the 'credentialSecret' option in↵your settings file. Node-RED will then re-encrypt your credentials↵file using your chosen key the next time you deploy a change.↵---------------------------------------------------------------------↵"

I watched the NH6Z video but nothing about that :-(

How can i solve this issue.

King regards

Patrick

    Hi Patrick

    You are connecting on the wrong TCP port.

    Do a telnet (not ssh) connection. Replace port 23 with port 4992.

    Hi Mike

    Thanks for the quick reply ! It's ok now

    I discovered node-red 👍 where can I find very simple example to manipulate variables?

    Make sure you join the node red group in groups.io.

    Mike,

    Thanks I watched this video and today I begin to use node-red ! Next step will be Arduino exploration to have small box with functions for contest situations.

    Hi Patrick, take a look at my TeensyMaestro project. It may be just what you are looking for. It can be built with only the features that you want. For example, you can build it without the display, or without the VFO B controls. Some people have built it without the CW keyer components. One builder built only the VFO A controls to simplify it and make it much smaller. It uses the Teensy 4.1 board from PJRC which can be programmed just like an Arduino. Note that the Teensy is MUCH MUCH faster, smaller and cheaper than the Arduino Due.

    Link to the TeensyMaestro thread on this community:

    TeensyMaestro

    KD0RC

    Link to the TeensyMaestro GitHub page:

    Site faviconGitHub - KD0RC/Teensy-Maestro-for-Flex-6000-radios: TeensyMaestro - a Teensy-based set of controls for Flex 6000 series radios.

    The GitHub repository has a User's Manual and a Builder's Guide. I would read these first to see if the project interests you or not. There is also a Bill Of Materials (BOM) complete with links to the parts. The complete source code is available so that you can customize it any way that you want.

    While this is not a beginner's project, it is not an advanced project either. It uses all point-to-point wiring (no SMD parts), so it is not difficult, just a bit tedious to make all the connections.

    Hi Len,

    Thanks for this input !

    I took a look to your project and i'll try to design a small setup for contest situation.

    Sounds good Patrick. Be sure to post your project progress on the TeensyMaestro thread. It will be fun to see what you come up with. That is also a good place to post questions as you move along.

    If you get a Teensy 4.1 board, make sure that you get a genuine one. There are Chinese clones that do not work in this application.

    Here is a link to the PJRC site:
