5 MULTIFLEX
multiFLEXâ„¢ allows more than one operating position for each radio. In SmartSDR v3.0+, up to two
operating positions may connect to a single radio. The operators may be in the same vicinity, or
they may be accessing the radio via SmartLink from anywhere in the world (with internet access).
In either case, the same familiar easy-to-use interface is used to drive the radio. Each operating
position is considered a Station and can have its independent Slices
, Panadapters
1
, transmit
settings, and active profiles. This allows the sharing of a radio with two users at the same time as if
they each had their radio although there can only be one active transmitter at a time and receive
resources must be shared.
multiFLEX introduces several new paradigms to the FlexRadio ecosystem that each needs their
definitions. These definitions are given assuming a single radio with two operators connected to
the same radio at the same time.
Station and Station Name: The Station is the main program being used to operate the radio. This
can include Maestro, SmartSDR for iOS, SmartSDR for Windows, and other programs that display
panadapter and waterfall data. Each of these programs is considered a Station and is assigned a
Station Name which can be changed by the user. This Station Name is then used in DAX, CAT, and
other third-party programs to track slices, panadapters, streams, and other information that is
unique to a Station. Each Station can have its own TX Slice and different TX/Mic profiles loaded
independently from other Stations. It can be thought of as an operating position.
Subject to resource availability based on model (e.g. FLEX-6700 has 8 Slices and Panadapters,
FLEX-6600/FLEX-6500 has 4 each, and the FLEX-6400 and FLEX-6300 have 2 each).
