Chapter 12 PACTOR Operation
Text before the first slash is sent to the other station as the Subject prompt; text after the slash is sent as the message
text prompt.
If there’s no slash in the text, the subject prompt is “Subject:” and the text prompt message is
Enter message ,
^Z
(
CTRL-Z
)
or /EX to end
.
MFilter
n1 [, n2 [, n3 [, n4 ]]] Default: $80
Mode: Morse, Baudot ASCII, AMTOR, PACTOR and packet Host: MI
“
n ” 0 to $80 (0 to 128 decimal) specifies an ASCII character code.
(Up to four characters may be specified separated by commas.)
Use
MFILTER to select up to 4 characters to be “filtered” or excluded from Morse, Baudot, ASCII, AMTOR,
PACTOR and monitored packets with parameters n1 - n4 , the ASCII codes for the characters you want to filter. The
special value of $80 (default) filters all characters above $7F and all control-characters except ( RETURN ) ($0D),
LF
($0A), and (
TAB
) ($09).
MId
n Default: 0 (00 sec.)
Mode: packet, AMTOR, PACTOR Host: Mi
“
n ” 0 - 250 specifies the Morse ID timing in units of 10-second increments.
0 Zero disables this function.
If “
n ” is set to a value between 1 and 250, the DSP will periodically issue a 20 wpm Morse ID. For example, a MID
of
177
would cause a Morse ID to be sent every 1,770 seconds (29.5 minutes). A Morse ID will be transmitted only
if a packet was sent since the last Morse ID. The Morse ID uses TXDELAY , PPERSIST and DCD .
If
MID
is set to a value other than
0
,
ID
will force a Morse ID immediately. If both
HID
and
MID
are active, the
Morse ID will be sent first.
MID normally sends a Morse ID using on/off keying of the low tone. If FSK keying of both tones is desired to
prevent stations from transmitting over your Morse ID, see the
UBIT 12
command.
Morse ID now works in AMTOR and PACTOR modes on both ARQ and broadcast transmissions. Because of the
nature of these operating modes, the destination station will go into an error state when your TNC sends a Morse
ID, but should recover data synchronization immediately afterwards.
MMsg ON | OFF Default: OFF
Mode: packet, AMTOR and PACTOR Maildrop Host: MU
OFF The MTEXT message isn’t sent at all.
ON
The stored
MTEXT
message is sent as the first response after an AMTOR or PACTOR link or packet
connect to the Maildrop is established.
MMSG enables or disables automatic transmission of the MTEXT message when your AMTOR, PACTOR or
packet Maildrop links with another station.
