Make sure you can talk to the PK232- getting cmd: prompt.
If you aren't, then it is likely stuck in either the wrong baud/speed, in AEA Hostmode, or is already in KISS, or a combination.
If your model of PK232 has the soldered on battery, remove the jumper which is situated underneath the unit. If the PK232 has a removable battery then remove it. Power up/down, put battery back.
The PK232 should start to do auto-baud. Get a terminal program ready set to 1200 or 9600, either will work but which one you chose now will be required later in the config. As soon as you get a cmd: prompt, its ready for setting into KISS mode. Be warned that once you do this and your PK232 has a battery, it will be persistent.
cmd:
KISS ON
BPQ config:
PORT
PORTNUM=1 ; Optional but sets port number if stated
ID=PK232 ; Displayed by PORTS command
TYPE=ASYNC ; Port is RS232
PROTOCOL=KISS ; TNC is used in KISS or JKISS mode
FULLDUP=0 ; Only meaningful for KISS or JKISS devices
IOADDR=B ; Win. 1 = COM1, 9=9, 10=A, 11=B - Hexadecimal!
;COMPORT=/dev/ttyUSB0 ; Linux
SPEED=1200 ; RS232 COM PORT SPEED set in the TNC
CHANNEL=A ; Only meaningful for multichan TNCs
PERSIST=64 ; PERSIST=256/(# of transmitters-1)
SLOTTIME=100 ; CMSA interval timer in milliseconds
TXDELAY=300 ; Transmit keyup delay in milliseconds
TXTAIL=30 ; TX key down, in milliseconds, at packet end
QUALITY=0 ; Quality factor applied to node broadcasts
; heard on this port, unless overridden by a
; locked route
; entry. Setting to 0 stops node broadcasts
FRACK=8000 ; Level 2 timout in milliseconds
RESPTIME=1500 ; Level 2 delayed ack timer in milliseconds
RETRIES=10 ; Level 2 maximum retry value
MAXFRAME=2 ; Max outstanding frames (1 thru 7)
PACLEN=120 ; Default max packet length for this port.
; PACLEN is ignored for APRS packets
BCALL=PE1RRR-13 ; BTEXT call. unstated defaults to APP1 CALL
L3ONLY=0 ; 1=No user downlink connects on this port
DIGIFLAG=0 ; Digipeat: 0=OFF, 1=ALL, 255=UI Only
DIGIPORT=0 ; Port on which to send
; digi'd frames (0 = same port)
USERS=0 ; Maximum number of L2 sessions, 0 = no limit
UIONLY=0 ; If set to 1 will stop any connects on this port
; ie it can only be used for UNPROTO traffic,
; such as APRS.
ENDPORT
Always check the log file of BPQ for errors concerning serial port permissions (linux especially). The windows systems use COM1 and USB devices tend to be COM9 or something like that, those are represented in the IOADDR field as hexadecimal. So COM11 would be "B".
===PACTOR===
For extra bonus, if you want to use your TNC for Pactor with BPQ there is a guide for setting that up. Here is another example config just for that. This requires the TNC to be at the cmd: prompt, not KISS mode.
PORT
PORTNUM=9
ID=Pactor Link
TYPE=EXTERNAL
COMPORT=/home/pi/dev/ttyV1
;IOADDR=
SPEED=1200 ; COM Port Speed
DRIVER=AEAPactor
PORTCALL=PE1RRR
CONFIG ; Driver-Specific Configuration
; Don't change MYCALL, its a command.
XMITOK ON
XFLOW OFF
RXREV OFF
FLOW OFF
AWLEN 8
AUTOBAUD OFF
8BITCONV ON
ALFPAC OFF
ALFDISP OFF
ACRRTTY 0
HPOLL ON
EAS ON
MYCALL
APPL BBS
ENDPORT
Hope this helps.--
