CALibrat {immediate command}
The CALIBRAT command is used to generate a signal which maybe used as an aid in tuning the
transceiver for operation. Use of this command is detailed in the Calibration/Equalization section of
this manual. The letter X will return you to the Command Mode and perform a soft reset.

CAnline
n (n = $00 – $FF)
{$18 <Ctrl-X>}
When entering commands or data to the KPC-9612, you may cancel the current line you are typing
(back to the last un-passed carriage return) by sending a <Ctrl-X> from your terminal.

CANPac n (n = $00 - $FF) {$19 <Ctrl-Y>}
When entering commands or data to the KPC-9612, you may cancel the entire packet (back to the
last un-passed SENDPAC character) by sending a <Ctrl-Y> from the terminal. When in Command
Mode, <CtrI-Y> acts as a cancel output character, turning off any output from the KPC-9612. Typ-
ing another <Ctrl-Y> re-enables output.

CD INTERNAL|EXTERNAL|SOFTWARE {INTERNAL/INTERNAL)
When set to INTERNAL, the KPC-9612 will detect a signal using the carrier detect built in to the
modem. For port 1 (1200 baud) a signal is detected when any energy is present. The port 2 (9600
baud) modem detects a signal based on data transitions. When set to EXTERNAL, the signal detec-
tion is supplied by an external device, connected to the XCD pin of the radio port. When set to
SOFTWARE, the firmware in the KPC-9612 will detect a signal based on the presence of Packet da-
ta on the audio input. The SOFTWARE option only applies to the 1200 baud port of the KPC-9612.
This setting allows open-squelch operation. Proper equalization is important for correct operation
of software carrier detection.

CHeck
n (n = 0 – 255)
{0/0}
This command specifies the time interval, in 10 second increments, used to check the condition of
a packet connection if no data is passing between the connected stations. If AX25L2V2 is ON, the
KPC-9612 will send a "cheek" packet every n×10 seconds to insure the other station is still re-
sponding. If AX25L2V2 is OFF and n×10 seconds has passed with no data being transferred, the
KPC-9612 will send a disconnect to the other station. Setting CHECK to 0 disables the automatic
check function.
