SETTING AS A DIGIPEATER ■ DIGIPEAT Access Menu 3K0. When using the TH-D72 as a digipeater, set whether or not you digipeat a packet which includes your callsign in the packet path. In the received packet path, if you have set your callsign in "My callsign" (Menu 300), the digipeat completion flag ( ) is added to your callsign and will then process the relay. (For example, "JA1YKX-1" > "JA1YKX-1 ".) ■ UICHECK Access Menu 3L0. ■ UIFLOOD When using the TH-D72 as a digipeater, set whether or not UIFLOOD digipeat runs. When the received UI Frame character string matches the entered alias (for example, CA), the number of hops (for example, 2-2) is processed and decreased by 1 (for example, CA2-2 becomes CA2-1). 1 Access Menu 3N0. 2 Set to "On" or "Off". 3 Access Menu 3N1. • You enter Alias Setting mode. This function will not relay a one-time received UI frame within the set UICHECK time. This is effective for each of UIDIGI, UIFOOD, and UITRACE. UI frame (Unnumbered Information frame) Data can be transferred and the APRS beacon, etc., can be used without making a connection. UIDIGI, UIFLOOD, and UITRACE are all specialized UI frame relay processing modes. ■ UIDIGI Access Menu 3M0 When using the TH-D72 as a digipeater, set whether or not UI digipeat is run. When receiving a UI frame that matches your entered character string alias of the beginning part of the packet path that has not yet been digipeated, the digipeat completion flag ( ) is added to your callsign (the callsign you set up in "My Callsign") and the relay will begin processing. (For example "WIDE1-1" > "JA1YKX-1 ", etc.) 1 Press [ ]/[ ]or rotate the Tuning control to switch the function ON, then press [ OK]. 2 Press [ ]/[ ] or rotate the Tuning control to select "Aliases", then press [ OK]. • The display for entering a path appears; the first digit blinks. 4 Enter the UIflood alias. • When running UIFLOOD digipeat, set the character string of the alias that is used. 5 Access Menu 3N2. • You enter UIFLOOD SUBSTITUTION Setting mode. 6 Set one of "ID", "NOID", or "FIRST". ID: Your station callsign is embedded. When there is already a callsign in the relayed UI frame, your station callsign will replace the existing callsign. NOID: The callsign is not embedded or replaced. FIRST: When there is no callsign in the relayed UI frame, your station callsign is embedded. When there is already a callsign in the relayed UI frame, the callsign is not embedded or replaced. • You can enter 0 to 9, A to Z, , (comma), and -. APRS - 21
