PK-232 MBX Operating Manual - N3UJJ

_______________________________________________________________________________
Nums
Immediate Command
Mode: Baudot, AMTOR, TDM
Host: NX
_______________________________________________________________________________
In Baudot, AMTOR and TDM receive, the NUMS command, or "N" will force the PK-232
into the FIGS case.
_______________________________________________________________________________
OK
Immediate Command
Mode: SIGNAL
Host: OK
_______________________________________________________________________________
OK normally follows the SIGNAL command after it has determined the class and
speed of the received station. Typing OK will change the commands RXREV, RBAUD
or ABAUD and OPMODE to their proper value. If the SIGNAL command did not reveal
any useful information, typing OK will produce the "?bad" error message.

Opmode
Immediate Command
Mode: Command
Host: OP

OPMODE is an immediate command that shows the PK-232's current mode of operation
and system status. Opmode also displays the MORSE speed when in the Morse mode.
Use the OPMODE command at any time when your PK-232 is in the Command Mode to
display the present operating mode. Here is a typical example:
cmd:o
OPmode AScii RCVE

PAcket
Immediate Command
Mode: Command
Host: PA

Use the PACKET command to switch your PK-232 into packet radio mode from any
other operating mode.
_______________________________________________________________________________
PACLen "n" Default: 128
Mode: Packet
Host: PL
_________________________________ Parameters: _________________________________
"n" - 0 to 255 specifies the maximum length of the data portion of a packet.
0 - Zero is equivalent to 256.
_______________________________________________________________________________
PACLEN sets the maximum number of data bytes to be carried in each packet's
"information field." Most keyboard-to-keyboard operators use the default value
of 128 bytes for routine VHF/UHF packet services. Your PK-232 automatically
sends a packet when the number of characters you type for a packet equals "n."
Reduce PACLEN to 64, or even 32 when working "difficult" HF radio paths.
