YSF

XLX042 Module F is available for YSF use via a hotspot device. To use module F your YSF radio must be set to TX DG-ID 15 so that audio can pass through the reflector. This module is not bridged into any of our WIRES-X rooms.

The commonly used infrastructure for YSF capable hotspots are YSF Reflectors or FCS Servers, we currently do not host either YSF or FCS.

What is the Difference between YSF & FCS?

First of all YSF reflectors & FCS servers will not connect to the WIRES-X network directly.

 YSF Reflectors & FCS Servers use different protocols to communicate with connected clients.

The main difference between them is that FCS servers handle modules numbered from 00 to 99 and you can select which module you want to use on the server. YSF reflectors do not have modules.

YSF reflectors are usually put up by individuals, or groups for a specific use, either to host a local group or to bridge into a WIRES-X room that is tied to a repeater. For the most part YSF reflectors are hosted on PI type devices.

FCS is a server based solution that was developed by the team that bought you the DV4 line of products as a connection point for their specific product users. Over time the FCS system was opened up to other developers for inclusion with their hardware.
