MCC-545C PACKET DATA RADIO
12/2000
There is a default destination programmed into the MCC-545C during the installation and
initialization of the unit when it is first brought on-line in the network. If a message is not given
a specific destination it will be sent to the default destination only.
To enter a message:
1.
Type MESSAGE. The operator terminal will respond with ENTER TEXT. The MCC-
545C will now be in the compose and edit mode.
2.
Enter a message up to 3,570 characters in length, pressing [CR] at the end of each 80
character line.
3.
Press the [ESC] key. The message will now be transferred to a Tx queue and will be
automatically transmitted to the default destination at a priority level R.
The following message will be displayed, or printed, on the operator terminal:
hh:mm:ss Message No: name:ss,nnnn chars, nnn segments
hh:mm:ss ROUTING name :sss TXT sss/nn TO: name
If you wish to send a message to multiple destinations, and at a different priority level,
type
MESSAGE, R, dest1, dest2, …dest n
where: “R” is any priority level from A to Z. A is the highest and Z is the lowest.
“Dest” is the numerical ID of the stations to which the message will be routed.
NOTE
If you also want to send the message to your default destination you must enter its station
numerical ID as one of the destination parameters (“dest1”, “dest2”, etc.) as specified above.
NOTE
If you want to use source routing enter 0 for the destination ID. When the master station
receives this message it will send the message to the appropriate destination based on it’s link
table showing which destination(s) are linked with your station. Refer to the master station
manual for more information on source routing.
There are three other special editing functions that may be used:
1.
To Retransmit A Previously Entered Message
To retransmit a previously entered message simply depress the [ESC] key after the
operator terminal prints ENTER TEXT and before any other key is depressed. The
previous message entered into the TEXT EDIT BUFFER will then be sent to the
destinations that are now designated in the MESSAGE command.
