Main Menu Main Screen Project News Screenshots Installation Instructions Qtel User Docs SvxLink Server User Docs Developer Documentation Software Downloads Support SourceForge Summary | ## Qtel user documentation Qtel stands for the "QT EchoLink" client. It is only a EchoLink client application. There is no "sysop mode". If it is a link you want to run, have a look at the SvxLink server application. Qtel is quite a simple application, so most things should be self explainatory. There are three windows: the main window, the configuration dialog and the communications dialog. The main window consists of four areas. The top-left is where to choose which class of staions to view. All stations in a class is shown to the top-right. There are four station classes: Conferences, Links, Repeaters and (private) Stations. There also is a bookmark class which isn't a real class. It's a collection of your favorite stations. Just right-click on a station in any of the other views to add it to the bookmark list. At left-bottom is a message area that shows the messages from the EchoLink directory server. At right-bottom is a list of incoming connections. To accept an incoming connection, highligt the station and press "Accept". The communications dialog is used to perform a Qso to another station. To activate it, double-click on a station line or just press the enter key when the station is highlighted. To connect to the station, press the Connect button. When audio is coming in from the remote station, the green RX indicator will light up. To transmit, press the PTT button. The red TX indicator will light up. To lock the PTT in transmit, first press and hold the Ctrl-key and then press the PTT button. To disconnect, press the "Disconnect" button. In the big, white area in the middle of the window, info messages from the remote station are shown. Chat messages from the remote station is also shown here. In the one-line white area below, chat messages can be typed that is sent to the remote station. The configuration dialog is brought up the first time the application is started. After that it can be brought up again by choosing the Settings/Qtel settings menu. Most fields are self explainatory. Location is the short string that is shown in the EchoLink directory server listing. The info message is the one that is sent to the remote station upon connection. In the Directory Server tab are some settings for the EchoLink directory server connection. Hover the mouse cursor above each field to get help about it. That is about everything there is to say about the Qtel application. It's quite simple.
