BlueDV Configuration for TGIF
« on: January 13, 2019, 01:57:36 pm »
BlueDV Software Installation for TGIF

This document will help you edit the file for BlueDV for Windows so you can get online with the TGIF Network.

1.   Download and Install BlueDV. (http://www.pa7lim.nl/bluedv-windows/)
2.   Make sure BlueDV is closed.
3.   Navigate to .\Documents\BlueDV
4.   Open the HBLink.txt.EXAMPLE in Notepad or Wordpad.
5.   Add this line:
TGIF, tgif.network, passw0rd, 62031    (16 digit password needed for secure talk groups)
6.   Click File > Save and save it as HBlink.txt
7.   Open BlueDV App.
8.   Click on Menu > Setup
9.   In the middle of the screen in DMR+ you should see a dropdown box.  Goto the bottom and select TGIF and hit Save.
10.   Reconnect by sliding the Serial and DMR sliders back to ON and you should be ready to talk.

11.   See below for examples:

Ensure your .\Documents\BlueDV\HBlink.txt file looks like this:
(do not copy the ---top--- or ---end--- they are just separators so you know what to copy/paste)

---TOP---
#By David PA7LIM -
#Rename this file to HBLink.txt
#Select DMRPLUS in BlueDV setup and choose your HBLink master.
#Logicalname, ipaddress, password, port
TGIF, 74.91.125.81, passw0rd, 62031
---END--

Make sure the BlueDV Server TGIF is selected in the DMR+ Section.

Notes to remember: 
The .\Documents\BlueDV\HBLink.txt.EXAMPLE has to be renamed to HBLink.txt for TGIF to show up under DMR+ - should be at the bottom of the list.  Make sure you save the file with the correct name, else TGIF will not show up in the Dropdown list under DMR+.

Is that the real password?

Even though I'm on the default 31665 but my radio says 9. "lastheard" says misconfigured radio.

BlueDV Configuration for TGIF
« Reply #6 on: August 24, 2020, 11:59:01 am »
I'd like to add a step 11 to Jason's instructions at the top. On the AMBE tab you need to manually enter the TG such as 31665. I took me awhile to figure this out.
Is anyone aware  of a TGIF TG Host file that can be imported into the Documents/BlueDV folder so the drop down menu on the AMBE Tab would so the TGIF TG's
instead of having to enter them manually. I have to keep a list handy of the TG's which is a pain. Also, if you're using a recent version of BlueDV, such as 9585 or higher,
you don't need to edit the HBLink.txt file. On setup in the DMR+Master drop down menu if TGIF is already at the bottom you're all set. Stu WI3J

Frustration level here is high. Here's my HBLink.txt:

#By David PA7LIM -
#Rename this file to HBLink.txt
#Select DMRPLUS in BlueDV setup and choose your HBLink master.
#Logicalname, ipaddress, password, port
HBlink1, 123.123.123.123, passw0rd, 62031
HBlink2, secret.mydomain.nl, passw11rd, 55555
HBlink3, secret2.mydomain.nl, passw11rd, 55555
TGIF, 74.91.125.81, passw0rd, 62031

And here is the setup screen:

When I open BlueDV and click on serial and dmr, the BM server shows but not TGIF.  Any help on what I did wrong?

So, every time I write something down and look at it after I posted it, I find the answer to my problem!  I forgot to change DMR type to DMRPLUS!

So, now everything works as it should.

 Thanks for looking.

I need some assistance for trying to get my new  ANYSECU radio (Android) to connect to TGIF.    I downloaded Blue DV and BlueDV ambe and cannot seem to get it to connect.   Anyone have a step by step procedure with instructions?    I got the unit to work on zello, team speak and echoling with no issue.     Need some guidance here 

Thank You,

Steve  K2SGT

On the Windows version of BlueDV, how do I actually get to .\Documents\BlueDV? I cannot seem to find this anywhere on the PC and I can see all hidden files.

It looks like the IP address changed.

#Rename this file to HBLink.txt
#Select DMRPLUS in BlueDV setup and choose your HBLink master.
#Logicalname, ipaddress, password, port
