Control Any Radio Via Mimer API

Build custom dispatcher UIs, integrate radio into your platform, or bridge PoC to professional networks. Developer-friendly protocol, production-ready infrastructure.

  
  
  
// Connect to SoftRadio Service
const ws = new WebSocket('wss://your-server/api');

ws.onopen = () => {
  ws.send(JSON.stringify({
    "Version": "2.0",
    "MessageType": "ClientLogin",
    "Parameters": {
      "Username": "dispatcher_1",
      "OperatorID": 10,
      "RequestedFunctions": [{
        "Function": "RadioAudio",
        "AudioMixes": {
          "AllRadios": [101, 102, 103]
        },
        "AudioProtocol": "WebRTC"
      }]
    }
  }));
};

// Transmit on a radio (PTT)
function pushToTalk(radioId) {
  ws.send(JSON.stringify({
    "Version": "2.0",
    "MessageType": "RadioTransmit",
    "Parameters": { "TargetID": radioId }
  }));
}

// Send every second while PTT held
setInterval(() => pushToTalk(101), 1000);

// Listen for status updates
ws.onmessage = (event) => {
  const msg = JSON.parse(event.data);

  if (msg.MessageType === "Status") {
    console.log(`Radio ${msg.Parameters.FromID}`);
    console.log(`RX: ${msg.Parameters.Receiving}`);
    console.log(`TX: ${msg.Parameters.Transmitting}`);
  }
};

Radios connect via Mimer Network Interfaces

Hardware or virtual interfaces developed by LS Electronics, each preconfigured for a specific radio model, Tetra, DMR, P25, or analog. They handle the radio-side protocol. For systems like Motorola Dimetra, a Virtual Network Interface connects directly to the core (no donor radios). For remote sites or autonomous ships, a simple voice + PTT connection using donor radios is also supported.

Mimer API exposes a WebSocket API

Your application connects over WebSocket (WSS), authenticates with Username and OperatorID, and requests the functions it needs, audio streams, PTT control, status monitoring. All communication is JSON. The API connects to the Mimer Network Interface over TCP (internet) or UDP (local network). The Network Interface processes and forwards commands such as transmitting, changing channels, and handling calls.

Your software controls the radios

Transmit, receive, monitor call status, and manage audio mixes. Multiple operators can share access to the same radio, seeing the same display and hearing the same audio.

Your software — dispatch, PoC, ship control, browser GUI

Connect to the API

Open a WebSocket connection to Mimer API. Authenticate using your Username and OperatorID.

Request radio functions

On login, specify which functions you need, audio control, status monitoring, call management and which radio MimerIDs to access.

Send and receive

Transmit audio via WebRTC or RTP. Receive real-time status updates: who is transmitting, which radio, what type of call. All over the same WebSocket.
