  My question is how do i set up the Time server Software I have followed the instructions but it will not save the file with the removed # I have attached two picture screen shouts which you can see what I am doing I would be very grateful if you could tell me how to do the Timeserver Setup as I am not very good with Linux I have my DVMEGA up and running ( very simple ) but not the Time Server |

It's best to leave the time server configured using UTC as set up in the image...the DStar Commander command processor can lock up under some circumstances associated with local daylight savings <-> standard time changes, which isn't a factor with time always set to UTC in the Pi.

Hi
Thank you for your reply
This is not about change the time it is about enabling the time server which is in the software but has been disabled Enabling this function by removing the # from the Exec line and on a reboot you will see the Time Server windows which you can then configure under the preferences tab the radio will then announce with a spoken voice the current time i.e. say the time every fifteen minutes or half hour or whatever you set it to
I how have this function fully working and the Commander software is working very well on all functions
For those interested you have to run the files under the sudo command in order to be able to save the changes ( this is what I was not doing ) the IP address for the timeserver is 127.0.0.1 and Port No is 11002
The instructions are in a read me file on the commander software desktop
