PAGING MESSAGE COMMAND
The Paging Message
command is formatted as follows:
Example 1:
<SOH>TBCC...C<STX>XXXX...XXX<ETX><EOT>
Example 2:
<SOH>T,B,CC...C,<STX>XXXX...XXX<ETX><EOT><CR><LF>
Note:
The commas, the
<CR>
character, and the
<LF>
character are optional in the
Paging Message
command. They
are used for appearance purposes to separate subparts of the command string and for formatting the echoed output while
troubleshooting the system.
<SOH>
(Hex code 01) is used to mark the start of a message. This character resets the paging system
and can be used to abort an incomplete paging command at any point prior to transmission.
T
Alphanumeric character representing the type of paging message to be transmitted
A =
Alphanumeric
N =
Numeric
1 =
One Beep (alphanumeric pagers)
2 =
Two Beeps (alphanumeric pagers)
3 =
Three Beeps (alphanumeric pagers)
4 =
Four Beeps (alphanumeric pagers)
B
Numeric character representing the data rate, in bits per second, at which the
paging message is to be transmitted
5 =
512 bps
1 =
1200 bps
2 =
2400 bps
Note:
This numeric character may have one or no leading commas separating it from the paging message type.
C...C
One to seven decimal numeric digits representing the cap code of the paging receiver to which
the message will be transmitted. Cap Codes are seven digit strings. Cap Codes that begin with leading
zeroes do not require the leading zeroes to be included in this numeric string, if you use comma
delimiters. If comma delimiters are not used, you must include leading zeroes.
Note:
This numeric string may have one or no leading commas separating it from the data rate.
