The ID packet is an unnumbered information <UI> packet whose data consists of your
station identification as set in MYCALL and a listing of other modes, if you have
activated them.
The MYCALL will be appended with “/R” if DIGIPEAT is ON, MYALIAS callsign
appended with “/D”. This packet will be addressed to “ID” and digipeated via any
addresses specified in the UNPROTO command.

default TERMINAL
When set to KISS, the serial port communication is in KISS mode (a framed data mode,
similar to SLIP). This requires a special program or driver in the computer attached to the
serial port of the TALON that communicates in KISS mode. See the KISS mode section
for more information.
When set to HOST, the serial port communication is in the Kantronics HOST mode. This
requires a special program or driver in the computer attached to the serial port of the
TALON that communicates in HOST mode. See the HOST mode section for more
information.
When set to LSUB, the TALON is in a transparent data mode. Data from the serial port
will be transmitted, and received data (from another unit also in LSUB mode) will output
from the serial port. See LSUB mode in the Operating Modes chapter, for more
information.
When set to POLL, the TALON can be configured as a “master” (with its POLLID set to
0000), or as a “remote” (with its POLLID set to a 4 digit number other than 0000). See
POLL mode in the operating modes chapter, for more information.
When set to TUP, the TALON is in a transparent data mode. Data from the serial port
will be transmitted, and received data (from another unit also in TUP mode) will output
from the serial port. In this mode, other TALON units can be used as digipeaters, when
their callsigns have been entered in the UNPROTO command. See TUP mode in the
Operating Modes chapter, for more information.
For instructions on exiting KISS, HOST, LSUB, POLL, and TUP modes, see the
appropriate sections of this manual.
NOTE: After changing the setting of this command to KISS, HOST, LSUB, POLL, or
TUP, a soft reset is required for the new mode to take effect (see RESET for details).
