Example 4:
<SOH>3,1,145678<EOT>
Will send a three beep tone/vibe only message at 1200 bps to a tone/vibe only, a numeric, or an
alphanumeric pager with cap code 0145678 and multiple tone/vibe cadence capability. Certain paging
receiver models may not be designed to respond to multiple tone/vibe cadence messages.
Example 5:
<SOH>2,1,145678<STX>412-3433<ETX><EOT>
Will send a two beep tone/vibe only message at 1200 bps to a paging receiver with cap code 0145678.
Note that the portion of the string after the cap code is ignored by the paging system because the paging
message type was a paging message type of one to four beeps.
Example 6:
<SOH>450006123<EOT><CR><LF>
Will send a four beep tone only message at 512 bps to a paging receiver with cap code
0006123.
RESPONSE TO ALL COMMANDS
The
v
9
Series
Paging Systems
will respond immediately to all commands, including Paging Message commands, Setup
Commands, and Status Commands, by echoing the Paging Message command back to the PC, and appending the
echoed command with a status message in one of the following formats:
<SOH><ACK>V..V,QQ,D,C,II<EOT>
The
ACK
response is sent by the paging encoder to the host system immediately following a command if the command
was understood by the paging encoder.
<SOH><NAK>EE<EOT>
The
NAK
response is sent by the paging encoder to the host system immediately following a command if the command
was not understood by the paging encoder or if certain errors occur.
<SOH>
(Hex code 01) is used to mark the start of a message.
<ACK>
(Hex code 06) is used to indicate acknowledgement of valid reception of a command from the host
system.
V..V
Alphanumeric string that indicates the version number of the firmware in the paging encoder. The version
number is followed by a comma character.
QQ
A one to two numeric character string that indicates the quantity of paging messages that have been
received by the paging encoder and not yet transmitted (Input Queue).
