When ON, an ID packet will be sent every 9.5 minutes, provided that packets are being digipeated
through your station, or routed through your KA-NODE, or into your PBBS. This command should
be ON if DIGIPEATING, GATEWAY, NODE or PBBS is enabled. If OFF, periodic identification packets
will not be sent.

Packet
When this command is entered an identification packet will be forced. This command can be used
to insure that your station identification is the last transmission before taking the station off the air.
The ID packet is an unnumbered information <UI> packet whose data consists of your station
identification as set in MYCALLl. The MYCALL will be appended with "/R", MYALIAS callsign ap-
pended with "/D", MYGATE callsign appended with "/G", MYNODE callsign appended with "/N" and
MYPBBS callsign appended with "/B" if these functions are enabled. This packet will be addressed
to "ID" and digipeated via any addresses specified in the UNPROTO command.

default TERMINAL
All Units
When set to TERMINAL, the TNC will operate with a standard terminal or computer running a ter-
minal emulation program. When set to BBS, the TNC deletes certain messages (i.e.
***connect
request
,
***FRMR
etc.) for greater compatibility with full-service BBS programs such as W0RLI,
WA7MBL, CBBS etc. When set to HOST, the TNC will talk to the attached computer using the Kan-
tronics HOST Mode (Packet ONLY). (See the Host Mode Section in the Operating Manual for de-
tails.) When set to KISS, the KISS code, as specified by Phil Karn, is implemented for communica-
tion to the attached computer. (See KISS Mode section in the Operating Manual.)
After changing the setting of this command, a soft reset must be performed for the new mode to
take effect (see RESET).
