-===== DMR Network Administration =====
-https://www.repeaterbook.com/DMR/DMR_Network_Management.php
-From the admin dashboard, you can access the DMR Management Module from the link in the Tools section of the menu. It will open a new page. This home page displays all of the current networks. A checkmark is shown if you are subscribed to the network. If you need to create a new network, you can click Create a Network from the menu.
-There is a general rule to adding a network. When adding talk groups, only add talk groups that are common to all repeaters on the network. This applies specifically to the talk group number only. Talk groups with different time slots and access methods (i.e., PTT-activated, Full-time, or Scheduled) can be handled by adding [[dmr_administration#custom talk groups|custom talk groups]].
-When you are subscribed to a network, you will receive notifications from the system whenever an admin changes a network.
-==== Managing Network Subscriptions ====
-Click a network from the home page. The network's home page will show your current subscription status. Click the subscribe or unsubscribe link from the menu to perform the desired action. Whenever new networks are created, all admins will receive an email notification with a link to the subscription module to allow for subscribing to the DMR network. Whenever a change is made to a DMR Network, an email notification is sent to all subscribed admins. This email also provides a link to unsubscribe from the DMR Network.
-==== Adding a Network ====
-To add a new DMR Network, click the link from the menu on the DMR Management home page. You will be taken to a page where you can name the new Network. A new network with no talk groups will be created. All admins on the site will be immediately notified by email. The email will allow the admin to subscribe to the new network you have created. As the creating admin, you will be automatically subscribed to the new network. The network will also be immediately available from the repeater edit pages.
-Above, is in effect, what is happening, but behind the scenes, a network is not actually created until the first talk group is assigned to it. Once the first talk group is added, the network becomes available for assigning to a repeater. As you add talk groups, any subscribed admins will be notified.
-You cannot technically delete or rename a network, but if you delete all of the talk groups, the network will, in effect, also have been deleted. The network will disappear from the database and will no longer be available for selecting or modifying. Deleting talk groups also notifies the subscribed admins.
-==== Adding and Deleting a Talk Group to a Network ====
-Important: Only common talk groups that apply to all of the repeaters connected to this network should be added. For example, if all the repeaters but one allow access to a specific talk group, do not add the talk group to the network. If a repeater allows access to a talk group that is not available to all of the repeaters on the network, then use the custom talk group function from the repeater edit page to add the single talk group.
-Adding and Deleting talk groups is done from a network edit page. There is not an edit function to edit a specific talk group. If there is a problem with a talk group, you must delete it and add a new one.
-To add a talk group, select the talk group from the drop-down menu. Then select the time slot and access. Click Save, and the talk group will be added. Repeat until all the talk groups are added. If you make a mistake, click the trash can to delete the talk group.
-Currently, admins cannot make modifications to the talk groups that can be chosen. If you need to change the name of a talk group as shown in the drop-down menu, please contact the site admin with proof of the correct name.
-==== Talk Group Database ====
-You can view all of the talk groups in the talk group database available for assignment.
-https://www.repeaterbook.com/DMR/all_talk_groups.php
-These are the talk groups that you can add to a repeater either via a custom talk group or adding to a repeater network.
-The talk group name itself is hyperlinked to another page that will show all of the networks that have this talk group assigned and/or the individual repeaters with the talk group custom assigned.
-The network can then be clicked to be taken to the list of all repeaters within that network.
-Only admins with a high proficiency with DMR have access to edit, add, or delete talk groups from the master databases. Requests are made from the Forum so that all admins that have subscribed to the DMR Forum can weigh in on the change.
-https://www.repeaterbook.com/index.php/forum/dmr-admin
-==== User Submissions ====
-Currently, there is no talk group module for users to propose talk groups. Users must put the talk group info in the notes section of the repeater request form. In the future, a form will echo out the current talk groups and allow the user to propose changes.
