Master Servers control two main timers for system usage. Holdoff (handoff) Timer and On Demand (Dynamic) Timers.
 
+
---
'''Hand Off Timer''' (Hold off) is set for 5 Mins on USA Master Servers. This timer function will hold off all other talk groups on a Time Slot when a user activates a talk group and will hold of the other dynamic and static talk groups on a Timeslot for a period of 5 minutes.
+
 
+
'''On Demand Timer''' (Dynamic) is set for 15 mins on USA Master Servers. This timer function provides for when a user keys up a dynamic talk group and will stay active for a period of 15 minutes. Once the timer exceeds this time the dynamic talk group will drop off.

== Cross Links ==
There are to be NO cross-links/cross-mode/bridging of any type on any State-Wide talk groups, Tacs 310-312, or USA Nationwide 3100.  It seems people like to experiment and this is NOT the place to do it.  If you need to test, please use your personal DMR ID as a 7 digit group call (talk group). We are a guest to those talk groups.
+
There are to be NO cross-links/cross-mode/bridging of any type on any Sri Lanka Island Wide Tacs 413, or talk groups 413001.  It seems people like to experiment and this is NOT the place to do it.  If you need to test, please use your personal DMR ID as a 7 digit group call (talk group). We are a guest to those talk groups.
  
== TAC (tactical) Channels ==
+
== '''Island wide''' 413 ==
TAC 310 - 312  are bridged between different networks so that communications between different networks are possible.  Please allow time between each transmission to allow others to also use the talk groups.  When a users on a cbridge activates a talkgroup, they will not hear anything until the next transmission starts.
+
This is the main talkgroup for the Sri Lanka.  All are welcome but we do ask if you are a foreign station to please make contact and move to a tac talkgroup. Talkgroups have labels for a reason and we do not want this turning into a World Wide talkgroup like talkgroup 91.  There is to be no cross-links / cross-modes of any type to this talkgroup unless using an OpenBridge or Cbridge connection.
 
+
TAC 310 - 312 should NOT be used as a primary talk groups by anyone! USA Nationwide 3100 should be used for that.  If you wish to have longer conversation, that is what the TACs are for.  Not to initiate a conversation.
+
 
+
Update July 6th 2019:  The TAC channels can no longer be made as static talkgroups.  The TACs were being used as call groups, which they aren't.  We have also removed the auto-static option on the hotspots.  This means they will time out after a duration of time.
+
 
+
== Nationwide 3100 ==
+
This is the main talkgroup for the United States.  All are welcome but we do ask if you are a foreign station to please make contact and move to a tac talkgroup. Talkgroups have labels for a reason and we do not want this turning into a World Wide talkgroup like talkgroup 91.  There is to be no cross-links / cross-modes of any type to this talkgroup unless using an OpenBridge or Cbridge connection.
+
 
+
== Statewide Talk Groups ==
+
'''State''' talk groups should be used as '''call channels or short conversations of 10 minutes or less'''.  Most states have chat or tac talk groups of their own that you may used for longer discussions.  Many repeaters carry their local statewide talk groups as static talk groups. Please be courteous and remember how many repeaters you may be keying up when using a statewide talk group.  If you are using another statewide talk group and are not in communications with someone else in that state, please be courteous and move to a different talk group. Nets on Statewides are an exception.
+
''Statewide Talkgroup usage should use true dmr only.  There should be no bridging of any other modes to ANY statewide talkgroup.''

A complete listing of all talkgroups can be found [https://brandmeister.network/?page=talkgroups by clicking here.]

Of course, '''[https://brandmeister.network/?page=talkgroups all BrandMeister talkgroups]''' can be activated in World wide. International talkgroups, national and regional talkgroups of countries. Sri Lanka should be used on timeslot 1. Talkgroup 413 is permanently active for Srl Lanka. It is meant as a calling channel, for establishing the initial contact and facilitate QSY to a regional or user activated talkgroup. <br>

HoseLine

Please note that HoseLine is not operational. Any existing links will dead-end.

Hotspot Configurations

Users connecting hotspots to BrandMeister Servers will be required have a Selfcare account and to set their hotspot security password.

Timers

Master Servers control two main timers for system usage. Holdoff (handoff) Timer and On Demand (Dynamic) Timers. ---

Creation of Talk Groups

Talk Groups are only labeled for 3, 4 and 5 Digit IDs. Due to the limited number of 5 Digit IDs available we are no longer labeling any new requests for 5 digit talk groups at this time. Please use your Radio ID (7-digit) or if you have a repeater your Repeater ID (6-digit) as your talk group. Although the 6 and 7 digit IDs will not be labeled they can be used immediately without Master Admin Approval. (in the new API, no release date at this time, repeater sysops will have the ability to label their 6-digit repeater ID in the repeater dashboard.)

Cross Links

There are to be NO cross-links/cross-mode/bridging of any type on any Sri Lanka Island Wide Tacs 413, or talk groups 413001. It seems people like to experiment and this is NOT the place to do it. If you need to test, please use your personal DMR ID as a 7 digit group call (talk group). We are a guest to those talk groups.

Island wide 413

This is the main talkgroup for the Sri Lanka. All are welcome but we do ask if you are a foreign station to please make contact and move to a tac talkgroup. Talkgroups have labels for a reason and we do not want this turning into a World Wide talkgroup like talkgroup 91. There is to be no cross-links / cross-modes of any type to this talkgroup unless using an OpenBridge or Cbridge connection.

Talk Groups

Of course, all BrandMeister talkgroups can be activated in World wide. International talkgroups, national and regional talkgroups of countries. Sri Lanka should be used on timeslot 1. Talkgroup 413 is permanently active for Srl Lanka. It is meant as a calling channel, for establishing the initial contact and facilitate QSY to a regional or user activated talkgroup.

Talkgroup Timeslot Description
413 1 DMR Group Sri Lanka
413001 2 DMR + Experiment TG in Sri Lanka
91 1 Worldwide - also used for the Worldwide Net every Saturday at 17:00 UTC

Support[edit]

To contact the team or request for technical assistance please utilize one of the following options to contact us,


HoseLine[edit]

Please note that HoseLine is not operational. Any existing links will dead-end.

Hotspot Configurations[edit]

Users connecting hotspots to BrandMeister USA Servers will be required have a Selfcare account and to set their hotspot security password as of Dec 11th, 2020.

Timers[edit]

Master Servers control two main timers for system usage. Holdoff (handoff) Timer and On Demand (Dynamic) Timers.

Hand Off Timer (Hold off) is set for 5 Mins on USA Master Servers. This timer function will hold off all other talk groups on a Time Slot when a user activates a talk group and will hold of the other dynamic and static talk groups on a Timeslot for a period of 5 minutes.

On Demand Timer (Dynamic) is set for 15 mins on USA Master Servers. This timer function provides for when a user keys up a dynamic talk group and will stay active for a period of 15 minutes. Once the timer exceeds this time the dynamic talk group will drop off.

Creation of Talk Groups[edit]

Talk Groups are only labeled for 3, 4 and 5 Digit IDs. Due to the limited number of 5 Digit IDs available we are no longer labeling any new requests for 5 digit talk groups at this time. Please use your Radio ID (7-digit) or if you have a repeater your Repeater ID (6-digit) as your talk group. Although the 6 and 7 digit IDs will not be labeled they can be used immediately without Master Admin Approval. (in the new API, no release date at this time, repeater sysops will have the ability to label their 6-digit repeater ID in the repeater dashboard.)

Cross Links[edit]

There are to be NO cross-links/cross-mode/bridging of any type on any State-Wide talk groups, Tacs 310-312, or USA Nationwide 3100. It seems people like to experiment and this is NOT the place to do it. If you need to test, please use your personal DMR ID as a 7 digit group call (talk group). We are a guest to those talk groups.

TAC (tactical) Channels[edit]

TAC 310 - 312 are bridged between different networks so that communications between different networks are possible. Please allow time between each transmission to allow others to also use the talk groups. When a users on a cbridge activates a talkgroup, they will not hear anything until the next transmission starts.

TAC 310 - 312 should NOT be used as a primary talk groups by anyone! USA Nationwide 3100 should be used for that. If you wish to have longer conversation, that is what the TACs are for. Not to initiate a conversation.

Update July 6th 2019: The TAC channels can no longer be made as static talkgroups. The TACs were being used as call groups, which they aren't. We have also removed the auto-static option on the hotspots. This means they will time out after a duration of time.

Nationwide 3100[edit]

This is the main talkgroup for the United States. All are welcome but we do ask if you are a foreign station to please make contact and move to a tac talkgroup. Talkgroups have labels for a reason and we do not want this turning into a World Wide talkgroup like talkgroup 91. There is to be no cross-links / cross-modes of any type to this talkgroup unless using an OpenBridge or Cbridge connection.

Statewide Talk Groups[edit]

State talk groups should be used as call channels or short conversations of 10 minutes or less. Most states have chat or tac talk groups of their own that you may used for longer discussions. Many repeaters carry their local statewide talk groups as static talk groups. Please be courteous and remember how many repeaters you may be keying up when using a statewide talk group. If you are using another statewide talk group and are not in communications with someone else in that state, please be courteous and move to a different talk group. Nets on Statewides are an exception. Statewide Talkgroup usage should use true dmr only. There should be no bridging of any other modes to ANY statewide talkgroup.
