You can also use the
KAM
to send CW to you by storing a file on the disk and then connecting the
KAM green wire (CW KEY) to your key input of your HF transceiver. Again, set the transceiver so
that it will generate sidetone, but will not transmit. Place the
KAM
in the CW Mode, out it in trans-
mit (
Ctrl-C T
) and then upload the file from your disk to the
KAM
.

The above description is specified to CW operation of the
KAM
. In addition, you should be aware
of other settings within your TNC which will affect the overall operation of your computer or termi-
nal and the
KAM
. In particular, review the Asynchronous Commands described in the first section
of this manual. For instance, if you have XFLOW ON, then you may use the flow control characters
(START and STOP) to control whether or not the
KAM
will send data to your terminal, or simply
store the information in its internal RAM memory.
