This feature is a big step towards solving possible future and current problems that are often difficult to hunt down. These tracks can be provided to the testers and developers in order to reproduce the conditions that caused the crash and correct it. In order to help the team find and correct MP issues that we are not always in position to produce during testing, 1.2.7 introduces the writing of tracks even when the game crashes. Track file are now automatically created when a crash is detected.Thus will allow for faster technology updates. From now on the updater is a separate entity. It's a virtual version used to replace the updater which was a part of DCS World. To learn more about call sign routing using the new CCS functions, please follow the CCS link from the main page of this site.Updates to 1.2.7 go through the intermediate version 1.9.3 due to some fundamental changes to the updater. Keep in mind there are 8 ‘spaces’ in D-Star. In the above descriptions the ‘_’ symbol is used for a space. To call sign route to a user (W1JY), the UR call would be: W1JY_ To call sign route to a gateway (W1CNH), the UR call would be: /W1CNH_B To route to anyone on the gateway, the UR call would be: CQCQCQ_ While on the subject or modifying the UR call, you can also use the UR call to call sign route to a specific user or gateway! You can also query the release of the gateway by setting the UR call to: _V To unlink the gateway, the UR call would be: _T (T in the eight place) To link to a DCS reflector (example is DCS024B), the UR call would be: DCS026BO To link to a XRF reflector (example is XRF005B), the UR call would be: XRF005BO To check the status of the gateway, the UR call would be: _W (W in the eight place) To link to a REF reflector (example is REF001C), the UR call would be: REF001CLĭExtra (XRF) and DCS (DCS) or XLX emulating XRF or DCS To return the gateway to the default, the UR call would be: _L (L in the eight place) To unlink the gateway, the UR call would be: _U (U in the eight place) To check the status of the gateway, the UR call would be: _I (I in the eight place) The * is the D-Plus command + 001 +03 for C ICOM G2 | G3 based repeater | gateway that is G2_Link enabled connecting to an REF (DPlus) reflector: DTMF The # is the DExtra command + 005 +02 for B This is a nice feature in case you didn’t know where it was in the first place! ICOM G2 | G3 based repeater | gateway that is G2_Link enabled connecting to an XRF or DCS (DExtra / DCS) reflector: DTMF When you complete your QSO, you can issue a ‘#’ to unlink from the reflector then issue a ‘**’ to put the gateway back to where it was originally. You can issue a ‘#’ to unlink then link to which ever reflector you want. On the above ircDDB gateway, say you connect to the gateway and want to link to another reflector and you don’t check the status first. This will return the gateway to the default reflector if one is configured. The D is the DCS command + 026 + 02 for B The B is the DExtra command + 05 +02 for B This will connect you to REF001C. The * is the D-Plus command + 01 +03 for C Un-Link (Gateway will respond with a verbal message) ircDDB Home Brew Repeater | Gateway (all CNHARC systems use ircDDB): DTMFĬheck Link (Gateway will respond with a verbal message) Lots can happen to prohibit this from working so don’t get discouraged if one or two don’t work for you on a gateway.įor a list of the DCS reflectors, click here.įor a list of the REF reflectors, click here.įor a list of the XRF reflectors, click here.įor a list of the XLX reflectors, click here. In order to connect a gateway to one of these reflectors, one would need to know if the gateway is enabled to do so and if the reflector is available for connections. The newest reflector is the XLX and this reflector can emulate any of the above reflectors as well as its own XLX reflector. These commands apply to ircDDB ‘hotspots’ as well.Īs of 2016, there are (4) types of reflectors on the network.ĭ-Plus reflectors start with REF, DExtra reflectors start with XRF.
DCS WORLD CONNECTION TIMED OUT SOFTWARE
The home brew repeaters are typically running software written by Jonathan G4KLX and most recently known as Pi-Star. These repeaters are non ICOM repeaters that run different versions of software and along with a digital voice modem, enabling them to be D-Star repeaters. Second there are repeaters out there known as ‘home brew’ repeaters (aka ircDDB Repeaters). Some of the sysops of the G2 | G3 gateways have added the ircDDB add-on which enables call sign routing. If these repeaters are running a gateway server, they are typically what is known as a G2 | G3 gateway. These repeaters are the original D-Star repeaters.
Linking and Un-linking from D-Star repeaters can be very confusing.įirst there are the legacy ICOM D-Star repeaters.
