If the Send no in-band data to network setting is enabled, then in-band data
coming from the modem (like the talker alias or in-band GPS position
information) won't be sent to the network.
If the Force talker alias to DMR network is set, then this talker alias will be
sent for all calls coming from the modem.
If the Send no in-band data to modem setting is enabled, then the openSPOT4
will remove all in-band data from calls coming from the network. By default this
setting is enabled. If you have a radio which supports talker alias decoding (like
Hyteras with at least firmware version v8), turn off this setting to let the
openSPOT4 pass through in-band data to your radio. If you have a radio which
does not support talker alias decoding, turn on this setting to prevent issues
with decoding voice calls containing in-band data (voice stuttering, calls
dropping etc.).
D-STAR® settings
The Default callsign for cross mode calls will be used when a received DMR or
NXDN call does not have a talker alias, or the call's ID doesn't have an
associated callsign in the database (or the database is not available).
If
Advanced mode
is enabled, the following settings show up:
If a call is received by the modem to the Echo callsign, then the openSPOT4's
built-in local echo service gets activated. It will record the call and plays it back
after the call is finished.
If the Force source callsign to D-STAR network for cross mode calls is
activated, then the source callsign of cross mode calls sent to the D-STAR®
server will always be set to the Forced src callsign for cross calls. This is useful
for example if you use a C4FM transceiver with a source callsign not exactly the
same as your callsign (ex. you've appended your nickname to your callsign), but
the server only accept calls with valid callsigns.
If the Force message to D-STAR network in cross mode is not empty, then the
specified message will be sent to the D-STAR® network if a DMR, C4FM or
NXDN call is received from the modem.
If the Transmit RX confirmation checkbox is checked, the openSPOT4 will
transmit a short call confirmation after the PTT is released on the D-STAR®
radio.
If the Auto mute DTMF commands checkbox is checked and a call is ongoing
from the modem, and a DTMF sequence is being entered, then the call to the
network will be automatically ended, so others won't be annoyed by hearing
your DTMF tones on the same reflector/gateway.
