servers this way changes the openSPOT4's active connector to the
Homebrew/MMDVM connector.
FCS: set the URCALL to the FCS server and room number. Example:
starting a call to destination callsign (URCALL) FCS00199 switches to
FCS001 room 99. Switching to FCS servers this way changes the
openSPOT4's active connector to the FCS connector.
YSFReflector: set the URCALL to YS followed by the YSFReflector server
ID. Example: starting a call to destination callsign (URCALL) YS89804
switches to YSFReflector 89804 (AmericaLink). Switching to YSFReflector
servers this way changes the openSPOT4's active connector to the
YSFReflector connector.
NXDNReflector: set the URCALL to NX followed by the NXDNReflector
server ID. Example: starting a call to destination callsign (URCALL) NX28299
switches to NXDNReflector 28299 (America-Ragchew). Switching to
NXDNReflector servers this way changes the openSPOT4's active connector
to the NXDNReflector connector.
C4FM notes
If you use a C4FM radio, make sure it is in digital narrow (DN) mode, otherwise
your calls can't be converted and only silence will be sent to the network.
You can update the Route cross mode calls to ID with a C4FM radio using
DTMF codes. You can start a short private call to an ID by entering the Special
command/cross mode private call DTMF code (by default it's *) followed by the
destination ID in DTMF code. You can start a short group call to an ID by
entering the Cross mode group call DTMF code] followed by the destination ID in
DTMF code.
So for example with the default DTMF codes, you can link TG3100 by entering
DTMF code #3100 , and link reflector 4770 by entering *4770 . If you want to try
the BM parrot, enter DTMF code *9990 , release the PTT, then if you press the
PTT again, the call will be forwarded to private call 9990, which is usually the
BM server's parrot service ID.
If you only enter * (without an ID) then a quick private call to 4000 will be
started. If you only enter # (without an ID) then a quick group call to 4000 will
be started.
You can also use the Wires-X® button menu of your C4FM radio to
select/search for servers.
Advanced settings
If
Advanced mode
is enabled, the following settings become available:
You can set a backup server which will be used if the openSPOT4 can't connect
to the primary server for Backup server activate connect timeout seconds. If
the backup server is disconnected then the primary one will be tried
automatically again.
