As the W8008 pager doesn't have a predefined RIC, the RIC will be assigned by the DAPNET support team, normally based on the existing CCS7 / DMR ID system. The POCSAG addresses are limited to 2^21 = 2097152, so IDs greater than the limit have to be shortened. It is not necessary to have a CCS7 / DMR ID to register a pager on DAPNET. | As the W8008 pager doesn't have a predefined RIC, the RIC will be assigned by the DAPNET support team, normally based on the existing CCS7 / DMR ID system.

- | The reception of the rubrics originally designed for [[skyperdescription|Skyper]] described [[rubricactivationskyper|here]] is not as convinient on the W8008 as on the Skyper. But there is a workaround: The rubrics are transmitted in both Skyper format and as personal messages. The RIC used for the rubrics for this purpose is 1000 + <RUBRIC Number>. So rubric number 42 is RIC 1042. You can assign up to 8 POCSAG addresses (RICs), on your W8008 that it listen to. It is convinient to programm you personal RIC and besides the RIC of up to 7 rubrics. So you can still receive the rubics content on the W8008. A mayor drawback is, that the W8008 will not distinguish between thoses and really personal messages, filling up your display quite fast. | + | The reception of the rubrics originally designed for [[skyperdescription|Skyper]] described [[rubricactivationskyper|here]] is not as convenient on the W8008 as on the Skyper.

Log in to the DAPNET Web Interface on [[http://hampager.de/#/rubrics|http://hampager.de/#/rubrics]] and look them up.

+ | The both stations look like the same, but the charging station has only 2 contacts, while the programming station has 8 contacts. Both stations have a micro usb connector on the side, which can be used for programming or for charging. It is also possible to connect a station to the USB connector of your laptop for charging. The delivered power supply of both stations has 1 ampere. | ||
