What is WIRES-X?
WIRES (Wide-coverage Internet Repeater Enhancement System) is an Internet
communication system which expands the range of amateur radio communication. By
relaying radio signals via the Internet, stations can be connected where radio waves
cannot reach each other.
WIRES uses local nodes (stations connected to the Internet via PCs) as access points
which repeat communications of conventional amateur radio stations. When the local
nodes are connected to each other via the Internet, amateur stations all over the world
can communicate with each other just by connecting conventional stations to the local
nodes.
Local node Local node StationStation
Internet
In addition to the WIRES features, WIRES-X also supports digital communications.
Using WIRES-X, you can transmit and receive digitalized data such as text, image data
and audio.
The device allows you to have analog/digital communications with stations far beyond
the VHF/UHF radio communication range by using WIRES-X local nodes. In digital
communication mode, you can search stations by call signs or keywords, and exchange
data such as messages and location information.
Since you can also use WIRES-X together with the GM (Group Monitoring) function on
a compatible transceiver to create a group including local nodes, you can also establish
a network covering a wider range.
Caution
You cannot connect to a currently in service WIRES-II node from a WIRES-X node, or vice versa.

Terminology
■Node
Radio repeater connected to the Internet via a PC, which repeats communications of
conventional amateur radio stations as an access point
●Local node
Node within the radio communication range of a conventional amateur radio station
●Analog node
Node which is a transceiver or repeater using the conventional FM format and can only
repeat DTMF (Dual Tone Multi Frequencies) codes and analog audio transmissions/
receptions
●Digital node
Node which is a transceiver or repeater compatible with digital communications in
C4FM (Continuous 4 level FM) format. With this type of node, you can not only relay
voice communications, but also text and image data transmissions. You can also repeat
DMTF codes and analog audio transmissions/receptions.

What is WIRES-X?
■WIRES-X user ID
YAESU provides identification names with the WIRES-X nodes. For each node, a DTMF
ID (5-digit number) and user ID (alphanumeric characters consisting of up to 10 digits)
are provided.
If you know the ID of the node you want to connect with, you can transmit the DTMF
code from the FT1DR/DE, and directly specify the node to connect to by searching by
characters (only for digital nodes).
●ID list
Nodes and rooms which are currently operating WIRES are listed and published on
our WIRES website. We provide information such as IDs, call signs and operating
frequencies (some may not be published due to the wishes of owners).
■Room (Round QSO Room)
WIRES system community space to which multiple nodes can connect simultaneously.
As well as voice communications, you can also chat with text messages on the PC used
for the local node.
●Open room
Room which allows all nodes to connect to
●Closed room
Room only registered nodes can connect to
●Owner
Node which opens and organizes a room
●Activity
Nodes which are currently connected to a specific room

What is WIRES-X?
■News function
This feature allows you to save digital data such as text, image and audio data on the
PC used for the local node, and access the data from the connected digital station.
From the digital station, you can access the local node (local news), the data storage
area (news station) in the connected destination node or room to read data (upload
data) and write data (download data).
The owners of a node or room can read/write data to their own station via a PC. The
owner can also delete data and change information such as its name and attribution.
The WIRES-X server also has its own news station (INT NEWS) where you can read
information and data supplied by YAESU.

■Preset search function
If the preferred channel for connecting to a local node is programmed (preset) in the
digital station, the channel can be scanned automatically when you start up WIRES-X.
Utilize this function as follows:
• Quickly connect to the local node you usually access by presetting its frequency in
advance.
• By presetting to a shared channel frequency with your friends nodes, you can quickly
connect the FT1DR/DE to a local node even while you are traveling in other areas
You can use 2 transceivers as nodes, one for the preset search channel (receive only
channel) and the other for the voice channel (operation channel).

Connecting to a Faraway Station Using WIRES-X
Finding a local node
To communicate using WIRES-X, a WIRES-X node station (local node) must be
established within radio contact range of the user transceiver.
WIRES-X nodes are stations users voluntarily registered with Yaesu. Their information
such as locations and operation styles are listed on our website:
https://www.yaesu.com/jp/en/wires-x/index.php
First use this list to search for a nearby local node, and nodes on the Internet used by
people 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.)

You can communicate with the connection destination by pressing peven when viewing data in a
node or room on the Internet using the NEWS function in digital mode (Page 21).
Useful functions in digital mode
Using a preset channel
Programming (presetting) a channel frequency allows you to easily connect to a local
node.
By sharing a channel frequency with other nodes, you can connect the transceiver to a
local node even while you are out. This is useful for a group to operate a station.
●Presetting a channel
1Press and hold Mfor 1 second or more
The FT1DR/DE will enter setting mode.

When the desired node is an analog station, use the DTMF function on the transceiver.
For details on how to use the DTMF function, refer to “Using the DTMF Function” in the
basic operating manual.

1Set the main band frequency to the local node frequency
2Press %to switch to analog FM mode
Tip For details, refer to “Switching the communication mode” in the basic operating manual.
3While pressing p, press the DTMF ID key of the node or room where you want to
connect
The DTMF code will be delivered.
4Release p, and keep the FT1DR/DE in receiving mode for about 10 seconds
Once connection is established, you will be able to hear audio.
Caution The connection destination screen will not appear.
Tip
You can store DTMF codes consisting of up to 16 digits for 10 channels on the FT1DR/DE. If you
register the codes of frequently-used connection destinations in advance, you can easily transmit a
code by pressing its abbreviated number while pressing p. For details, refer to “Using the DTMF
Function” in the basic operating manual.
