which were heard a while before and are heard again after being digipeated by 

other stations,

“New-N Paradigm PATH filter rules”

 – here you can insert New-N Paradigm paths 

to be handled by PLXDigi digipeater function:

“Path (n-N)”

 – path name, WIDE, SP, etc.

“N>=”

  and  

“N<=”

  – minimum and maximum N for path to be forwarded, 

for  example WIDEn-N with N>=1 and N<=3 will forward paths: WIDE3-3, 

WIDE3-2, WIDE3-1, WIDE2-2, WIDE2-1, WIDE1-1, 

“traceable”

 – if Yes, PLXDigi will add its own callsign to the path, if No, it 

will not do that,

“active”

 – if not checked, current row will not be active.

“CALLSIGN filter rules”

 - here you can define “black list” (

“General rule:”

 set to 

“Allow all, except below”

 - all callsigns will be digipeated except listed below), 

or “white list” (

“General rule:”

 set to 

“Deny all, except below”

 - only callsigns 

listed below will be digipeated).

If you are new to APRS or if you are running the device for the first time, you can leave 

all the options as default. By default, the device will digipeat all packets with WIDEn-N 
string in path and also local Polish SPn-N string (if you are not from Poland you can 

remove SP from the second row, it is placed here as an example of a local New-N path).

7.7. Beacons Tab

“Dest”

 – destination field of a beacon packet. It would be best to leave it default 

which will allow your device to be recognized as PLXDigi (and added to working 

stations callsign list on my webpage),
