3.
Addressing
Packetized operation allows for a more versatile network
architecture, with source, destination, and network addresses. M8T uses a
16-bit address to identify data packets.
4.
No Dribble Data
Even in the presence of noise, the M8T modem will not
output extra data or have random bit errors. Modems without packet
operation generally do not work well with weak noisy signals.
5.
Transparent Operation
Because of the high-reliability and error-free
operation the Packet Mode offers the user, most user applications will
seamlessly work using the M8T in its Packet Mode.
6.
Repeatable and Routable.
M8T packets are structured so that they may be
repeated using a store-and-forward repeater, and/or routed using specialized
hardware.
(Packet Mode of Operation)
The packet or paging mode of operation is configured using the
ATMT
command.
8.1.
Setup
1. Connect a DC power source to the M8T.
2. Connect a good quality antenna, cut to the operating frequency, to the BNC
connector on the front of the modem. Use a good antenna, and place is at
high-above obstructions as possible.
3. Connect a computer terminal, or PC computer running HyperTerminal, to the
9-pin I/O connector. The factory default serial ports settings are 9600 bps, 8
data bits, 1 stop, no parity.
