7Connecting to a Faraway Station Using WIRES-XFinding a local nodeTo communicate using WIRES-X, a WIRES-X node station (local node) must beestablished within radio contact range of the user transceiver.WIRES-X nodes are stations users voluntarily registered with Yaesu. Their informationsuch as locations and operation styles are listed on our website:https://www.yaesu.com/jp/en/wires-x/index.phpFirst use this list to search for a nearby local node, and nodes on the Internet used bypeople you want to communicate with; write down the node names and frequencies.Since the connection procedure differs between digital stations and analog stations,confirm whether the node is an analog station or a digital station.• When the local node is a digital station:Connect from your transceiver in digital mode.(Nodes on the Internet can connect to both digital and analog stations.)• When the local node in an analog station:Connect from your transceiver in analog mode.(Nodes on the Internet can connect to both analog and digital stations.)Connecting in digital mode• Ascertain the DSQ code or the DG-ID setting of the WIRES-X node station. Connectingto the WIRES-X node requires the transceiver DG-ID be set according to the DSQ codeor the DG-ID code set on the WIRES-X node station.• Confirm that the operating mode of WIRES-X node has been set to the C4FM digitalmode.• Before using WIRES-X, set the communication mode (modulation mode) to C4FM.Connecting to a WIRES-X digital node1 Set the transmit/receive DG-ID to the same ID number as the node station. For details,refer to the FT3DR/DE Operating Manual.2 Transmit corresponding to the transmit/receive fre-quency.Tips • If receiving the signal from the node, transmit it as is.• If not receiving the signal from the node, it is possiblethat the node station is not connected to the Internet àproceed to step “Connecting to the other node ID or theother room ID”.5 DG-IDDG-ID: AUTOConnecting to the other node ID or the other room ID1 Press and hold the [DISP] key → Touch [WIRES-X] → [5 GD-ID].
