YSFReflector connector
You can use this connector to connect to a network which supports the YSFReflector protocol, like YSFReflector servers.
The easiest way is to use the Quick setup to connect to these networks.
Advanced settings
If you enter IDs into the DGID list, then they will be sent to the server. The server will link the specified DGIDs/rooms if it supports this functionality.
Switching YSFReflector servers using your radio
You can switch YSFReflector servers with your radio by entering the Special command/cross mode private call DTMF code (by default it's *) or the Cross mode group call DTMF code (by default it's #) followed by the desired server's ID (5 digits).
You can also use the Wires-X® button menu of your radio to select/search for servers.
Cross mode usage
The YSFReflector connector is a C4FM connector, but it supports DMR, NXDN® and P25 cross modes, and D-STAR® with the openSPOT4 Pro.
Using a DMR, NXDN® or P25 transceiver
Send your calls from these transceivers to TG9. Calls from the network will also be forwarded to TG9 to your transceiver.
You can change servers using DMR, NXDN® and P25 transceivers by calling their IDs with a private call.
You can switch the cross mode DGID sent to the network by making a short group call to 4000 + the desired DGID number. For example, if you want to set the cross mode DGID to 25, start a short group call 4025. To reset the DGID to 0, start a short group call to 4000.
Using a D-STAR® transceiver (openSPOT4 Pro only)
You can switch YSFReflector servers using a D-STAR® transceiver by entering DTMF code * followed by the desired server's ID (5 digits).
You can also use the URCALL/your call method. This lets you change to the following server types:
- REF/XRX/Gateway: set the URCALL to for example
REF001 C
. Switching to REF/XRF servers or gateways this way changes the openSPOT4's active connector to the REF/XRF connector. - DCS/XLX: set the URCALL to for example
DCS001 A
. Switching to DCS/XLX servers this way changes the openSPOT4's active connector to the DCS/XLX connector. - BrandMeister: set the URCALL to
BM
followed by the BrandMeister server ID. Example: starting a call to destination callsign (URCALL)BM2162
switches to BrandMeister server 2162 (Hungary). Switching to BrandMeister 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.
You can switch the cross mode DGID sent to the network using a D-STAR® transceiver by entering DTMF code # followed by the desired DGID. For example, if you want to set the cross mode DGID to 25, enter DTMF #25. If you only enter # then the cross mode DGID will be reset to 0.
