Cross modes using a D-STAR®
transceiver (openSPOT4 Pro only)
Using a DMR network
After you've set up and activated the DMR connector, switch the modem to D-
STAR® mode.
The source DMR ID of your calls from the D-STAR® radio will be set to the ID
associated with the source callsign. If there's no ID associated, then the source
callsign will be parsed into a number and this will be used as the source DMR
ID. If it can't be parsed into a number, then the Default cross mode source DMR
ID will be used. You can set this to your DMR ID.
The callsign of incoming DMR calls will be set to the callsign associated with the
DMR ID. If there's no callsign associated in the database, then the Default
callsign for cross mode calls will be used. If it's not set, the callsign will be the
source DMR ID as text.
Using a C4FM network
After you've set up and activated the C4FM connector, switch the modem to D-
STAR® mode. Only calls in DN (Digital Narrow) mode will be converted to your
D-STAR® radio. If someone transmits in other modes on the C4FM network,
you will hear silence on your D-STAR® radio.
If there's an incoming call from the C4FM network, and the incoming call's
source callsign can be found in the callsign database, then the openSPOT4 adds
the caller's name and country code to the D-STAR® call's message.
Using an NXDN® network
After you've set up and activated the NXDN® connector, switch the modem to
D-STAR® mode.
All D-STAR® calls will be sent to the Default cross mode destination ID on the
NXDN® network.
The source NXDN® ID of your calls from the D-STAR® radio will be set to the ID
associated with the source callsign. If there's no ID associated, then the source
callsign will be parsed into a number and this will be used as the source NXDN®
ID. If it can't be parsed into a number, then the Default cross mode source ID
will be used. The default ID will be used if the Always use this ID in cross
mode setting is enabled for the Default cross mode source ID on the Settings
page, NXDN® settings section.
The callsign of incoming NXDN® calls will be set to the callsign associated with
the NXDN® ID. If there's no callsign associated in the database, then the Default
callsign for cross mode calls will be used. If it's not set, the callsign will be the
