Appendix; Differences From Wires-Ii - Yaesu WIRES-X HRI-200 Instruction Manual

Differences from WiRES-II

● WIRES-X is not compatible with WiRES-II
Since the network system architecture of WiRES-II and WIRES X are completely different, WIRES-X cannot be used to connect to
WiRES-II nodes. Conversely, you also may not use a WiRES-II to connect to a WIRES-X node.
Also, when using the remote monitor function, you cannot remotely control a WIRES-X node with the WiRES-II remote monitor
software (WIRESMON.exe). For remotely controlling a WIRES-X node, be sure to use the dedicated remote monitor software
(WIRESMON-X.exe).
● WIRES-X IDs are assigned separately from WiRES-II
Even if you already have a WiRES-II ID, you are still required to obtain a new ID for WIRES-X.
With WIRES-X, one node is assigned two ID types, a DTMF ID (5-digit number) and a User ID (up to a 10-character alphanumeric
string). The DTMF ID is used as an access code when performing analog operations, whereas the User ID is used as an access
code during digital operations.
● The WIRES-X software is installable on a PC with the WiRES-II software already installed
Since WIRES-X uses Internet communication ports different from those used by WiRES-II, you can communicate with both systems
using only a single IP address.
WIRES-X uses the following communication port types.
UDP ports .... 46100, 46110, 46112, 46114, 46120, 46122
TCP ports .... 46190 (only while using the remote monitor function)
Conversely, WiRES-II uses the following communication port types.
UDP ports .... 46000, 46001, 49660, 49670, 49680
TCP ports .... 46080 (only while using the remote monitor function)
When using a router for connecting your node PC to the Internet, please refer to "Opening the router ports" (page 17). When
these 11 UDP ports (when using the remote monitor function, the two TCP ports also) are set as open, WIRES-X and WiRES-II can
be used on the same PC.
Tip
Depending on your router, there may be a restriction on the number of ports that can be opened. If you are using WIRES-X and WiRES-II on the same PC,
please use a router that can open 13 ports.
Caution
If you desire to use WIRES-X and WiRES-II at the same time, YAESU recommends using a dual-PC setup with the corresponding dedicated software
installed on each PC.
