Automated Installation of ModeSMixer2 & ModeSDeco2 on RPi

abcd567,
Can you build a install script for acarsdeco2?
http://xdeco.org/?page_id=42

You had made a tutorial on installing acarsdeco2 a while back.

I’ve just tested the script out of curiosity on my device. It works like a charm, should be manageable also for people with only little skills.

however i do not get that damn google map running, even if i have a valid key.
Do you know any information about plans how to manage that in the future (e.g. Bing maps or OSM)?

FWIW point (2) is exactly why dump1090/skyview went entirely to openlayers with no option for google tiles - to use the google tiles, you need to use the google javascript API, which requires a key, and maintaining two copies of all the map code, one implemented for the openlayers API, one for the google API is impractical.

This remind me how much resistance & opposition you had to face due to abandoning Goigle map…

This is really good but it’s a shame about the google map message.

Hello
I’m interested in trying ModeSMixer2.
Where do I need to be with my raspberry setup before I add the ModeSMixer2? I guess I’m asking about about a prerequisite configuration.
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply
Will that get me FA, FR24, and ADSB Exchange?

No you can install their feeder software separate

What I should say is go to their websites and look up their installation instructions. Usually the installation will detect that Piaware is installed and only install their feeder software.

Thanks
I’ll give it a go.
Cheers

To Install FA Feeder

wget http://flightaware.com/adsb/piaware/files/packages/pool/piaware/p/piaware-support/piaware-repository_3.7.2_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i piaware-repository_3.7.2_all.deb

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install piaware

sudo piaware-config allow-auto-updates yes
sudo piaware-config allow-manual-updates yes

sudo apt-get install dump1090-fa

sudo reboot

.

To Install FR24 feeder

sudo bash -c "$(wget -O - https://repo-feed.flightradar24.com/install_fr24_rpi.sh)" 

IMPORTANT:
During configuration of FR24 feeder, do NOT select

Select
4 (i.e. ModeS Beast (USB/Network))

Please see below settings I entered for configuration:

Step 4.1 - Receiver selection (in order to run MLAT please use DVB-T stick with dump1090 utility bundled with fr24feed):

 1 - DVBT Stick (USB)
 -----------------------------------------------------

 3 - SBS3 (USB/Network)
 4 - ModeS Beast (USB/Network)
 5 - AVR Compatible (DVBT over network, etc)
 6 - microADSB (USB/Network)
 7 - SBSx via Basestation (localhost:30006)


Enter your receiver type (1-7)$: 4
Step 4.2 - Please select connection type:

 1 - Network connection
 2 - USB directly to this computer

Enter your connection type (1-2)$:1

Step 4.3A - Please enter your receiver's IP address/hostname
$: 127.0.0.1

I’m going to try this when I get home from work tonight, but just so that I’m clear, what do I need to install on my SD card before I run those commands?
Thanks

(1) Go to following page and download Raspbian Buster Lite on your Desktop/Laptop.

https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/

(2) Go to following page and download Etcher on your Desktop/Laptop.
https://etcher.io/

(3) insert microSD card in your Desktop/Laptop (use card reader). Write the downloaded Raspbian Buster Lite image to your microSD card using Etcher. After writing image, open the drive of microSD card (will show as boot) and create a file named ssh there. Note: Etcher will eject your microSD card after writing the Raspbian image. Unplug & repug microSD card then open its drive to create file ssh.

(4) Insert microSD card into RPi and powerup

(5) To install FA & FR24 feeders, SSH to RPi (use username: pi, password: raspbian). After SSH, issue commands in my above post. Note: install FR24 after you have installed dump1090-fa.

Hello
When I run this command

wget http://flightaware.com/adsb/piaware/files/packages/pool/piaware/p/piaware-support/piaware-repository_3.7.2_all.deb

I get the following

Resolving deb (deb)…failed: no address associated with hostname wget unable to resolve host address deb

Any ideas?

Thanks

The command you used is broken into two lines. Copy-paste the full cammand as a single line like below:

(note: scroll right to see & copy the command in full)

wget http://flightaware.com/adsb/piaware/files/packages/pool/piaware/p/piaware-support/piaware-repository_3.7.2_all.deb
