You can set the DMO mode TDMA channel for the network. DMO mode is
enabled if the connector's RX and TX frequencies match. This setting specifies
which TDMA channel is used for sending calls to the server. On the BrandMeister
network the DMO mode links the two timeslots together, so this setting is
irrelevant.
Auto connect
The Auto connect to ID will be quick called when the openSPOT4 connects to
the server. Please see the Quick call's description for more information about
this feature.
Using the auto connect feature is not needed (and not recommended) on
BrandMeister, as this network supports auto static talkgroups: the first
talkgroup you call after calling TG4000 will be set as auto static. Auto static
talkgroups will not be unlinked after a timeout like dynamic talkgroups (this
timeout is usually 15 minutes, but this depends on server settings). Example:
start a short call to TG4000. Then start a short call to TG3100. Now TG3100
will be auto static, which means it won't be unlinked after a timeout.
If you are using auto connect to a talkgroup, it is advisable to check the Unlink
TG/ref. on auto connect checkbox. If it's checked, the openSPOT4 will
automatically quick call TG4000 after it is connected to the server, so the
currently active TG/reflector will be unlinked. This is useful if you only want to
use a talkgroup, but the server always links you to a reflector automatically.
Note that reflector and talkgroup linking (and unlinking) is done by the
network, not the openSPOT4. The openSPOT4 has to make quick calls, which
are the same as pressing PTT for a short time on a radio (kerchunking). These
empty calls will also show up on the BrandMeister network's dashboard.
Call rerouting
You can enable rerouting by setting the Reroute DMR TG9 calls to ID other
than 0. If rerouting is active, all voice calls are rerouted to and from TG9. This
makes using talkgroups easier, as you don't have to set them in the RX group
list on your radio.
For example, if you set the reroute ID to 3100/group call, then if you call TG9
on your radio, your call will be sent to TG3100, and if someone talks on
TG3100, the call will be sent to TG9 on your radio, so it will receive it even if
you don't have TG3100 in your RX group list.
Another example: if you set the reroute ID to 9990/private call, then if you call
TG9, your call will go to the parrot service 9990, and the parrot reply will come
back to you to TG9.
Rerouting is dynamic, so if you start a short voice call to a new
reflector/talkgroup, the reroute ID will be automatically set to the new
reflector/talkgroup with the appropriate call type.
