KA-NODE
This entry specifies customized text to be sent with the initial KA-NODE sign-on message (when
the KA-NODE is connected to be a remote station). Enter any combination of characters and
spaces up to a maximum length of 128. Entering a single

This command determines the number of nulls sent to the computer or terminal after a <CR> in
order to enable a transmission delay following any <CR> sent to the terminal. This is useful for
some hardcopy terminals.

This command determines the number of nulls sent to the terminal after a <LF>, in order to ena-
ble a transmission delay following any <LF> sent to the terminal. This is useful for some hardcopy
terminals.

default 0
All Units
KA-NODE
This command is used to set the number of allowable circuits through the KA-NODE. For example,
if you wish to allow up to 6 simultaneous circuits through the node, set
NUMNODES 6
. The num-
ber allowed will depend upon the amount of RAM available in your TNC. If you select n larger than
the available RAM will allow, an
out of range
message will be returned to you. Generally, set
the amount of RAM required first for your PBBS (personal bulletin board) and then set the desired
number of circuits. Approximately 4k of RAM is used for each circuit. This command will cause a
soft reset.

KPC-4
Packet
This command can be used only with certain Kantronics' external modems installed in radio Port 2.
Depending upon the modem, it may be possible to connect both radio ports in parallel to one ra-
dio. The
KPC-4
then could determine whether an incoming packet was normal (1200 baud FSK) or
special (such as 2400 baud QPSK) and react accordingly. See the documentation that comes with
the external modem for more details. If the external modem cannot support the ONERADIO com-
mand, it is ignored.
