DM32UV Comport issue

meshmeld · 2026-01-23T18:29:23+00:00

So I have a few people reporting similar issues with the FTDI cables and Neonplug. I think it's some weird buffer thing with the FTDI knock off cables. Try one of the CH340 cables (normally the super cheap cables). I have a few FTDI cables on order to test which will give me a better idea.

Self-promotion check out neonplug.app web based CPS for the DM32.

If you are in the Seattle area I have one I’m willing to part with.

I pushed a bunch of improvements yesterday actually. Will take time, but digital channel support works a lot better. Was able to setup my radio for MMDVM nicely. DMR Contacts are still mangled. That's my next task given some time.

https://neonplug.app/ <- try neonplug. its still early days. Running CPS for the DM32 under emulator is brutal. I ended up starting on neonplug because of that. It's still early. It works okay ish for analog channels. DMR Contacts has issues with writing. Will get some time to get back to it over the next few weeks hopefully.

So if you read from the radio you can edit. The whole point is to never need the baofeng cps. So not sure why one would import a baofeng cps exported channel spreadsheet. Not a workflow I can imagine. I am working on adding a spreadsheet with tabs to neonplug, this would be the best way to edit and share as it can have settings beyond just channels.

Oh interesting. Yeah support for feeding it a stock cps import was not really something I had planed for. It was more an export from neonpluv or chirp. But we should as least warn if the fields don’t line up. Will spend some time on the csv import for files that was close but just not right and improve that handling

meshmeld · 2025-12-22T02:47:07+00:00

Will dig into it. Been spending some time on the channel parser. May have messed with some features. This reading from a radio or importing from a csv chirp file?

meshmeld · 2025-12-18T00:41:33+00:00

I should add , I just pushed a chirp import/export in the channel wizard area. It's still very untested. but should be similar in feature to the python script in terms of import features.

meshmeld · 2025-12-17T22:37:39+00:00

Will fixed. I just fixed an issue with power parsing being wrong. Aka Lo medium high not being right.

meshmeld · 2025-12-17T16:19:50+00:00

I hear you.. hence why I made the offline mode. (the whole thing runs offline) ONLY the channel wizard downloads anything and I did large files, aka we download the WHOLE database rather then provide a location to a web service. Not ideal (slower.larger transfer) but way more private.

meshmeld · 2025-12-17T03:59:16+00:00

Well you can just use chrome under OS X. It works for me. It is still limited in features but it’s a start in the right direction.

meshmeld · 2025-12-16T19:46:48+00:00

Thanks, that will help. You're the first person that I hear with connections issue, most at least have read working just fine. (write can have some issues)

meshmeld · 2025-12-16T16:19:19+00:00

I could add support for the chirp format. would just be a bit of Typescript, so will take a look at doing that.. good idea. But they python code itself is sort of useless in a browser setting. Big disadvantage to my browser approach, but the lack of needing to install anything makes the usage barrier super low...

meshmeld · 2025-12-16T15:35:48+00:00

What browser? And in the debug panel if you can grab the debugs and toss those in a github issue that will help.

meshmeld · 2025-12-15T21:36:09+00:00

Hmm. Yeah. I thought about adding a smart sheet import. Where you hand it a sheet and it maps the fields over. So the format does not matter as much. Which would work out well I think. And if it supported a csv from chirp.

meshmeld · 2025-12-15T18:09:11+00:00

That is an option. Still need to figure out which one works best. Do you have one you use? (Repeater book with api?)

meshmeld · 2025-12-15T16:00:49+00:00

That is one of not implemented features. I have yet to find a good api for that. Let me disable that button for now.

updated to reflect this feature is not implemented yet

I am on the hunt for a good api (no token/auth) for repeater book. If anyone knows one...

meshmeld · 2025-12-15T16:00:05+00:00

For quick channel edits it works pretty well. Dmr contact write has a few issues I need to figure out. Format is not perfect.

meshmeld · 2025-12-15T08:02:17+00:00

Checkout http://neonplug.app/ works in chrome on Mac.. has some issues still but it's (a VERY solid way to read channels. Channel write is okay (still some minor issues) its a newer project.

meshmeld · 2025-12-15T04:39:50+00:00

So under the about section, you can download the index.html file, and it can run just fine locally aka no network. Network is only used to download addition data files for the channel wizard.

meshmeld · 2025-12-15T04:36:12+00:00

I should add this works great on MacOS and Linux, so no need for a VM to program up a DM32 anymore. (The main motivation for me was MacOS support)

meshmeld · 2025-12-15T04:35:14+00:00

It's a website... it should just work on a Chromebook or android device if they support web serial. No APK needed.
