CMdtime "n" Default: 10 (1000 msec.)
Mode: All Host: CQ
_________________________________ Parameters: __________________________________
"n" - 0 to 250 specifies TRANSPARENT and HOST Mode time-out value in 100-
millisecond intervals.
If "n" is 0 (zero), exit from TRANSPARENT Mode requires sending the
BREAK signal or interruption of power to the PK-900.
________________________________________________________________________________
CMDTIME sets the time-out value in Transparent and HOST Modes. A guard time of
"n" times 10 seconds allows escape to Command Mode from Transparent Mode, while
permitting any character to be sent as data.
The same Command Mode entry character COMMAND (default <CTRL-C>) is used to exit
Transparent Mode, although the procedure is different than from Converse mode.
Three Command Mode entry characters must be entered less than "n" times 10
seconds apart, with no intervening characters, after a delay of "n" times 10
seconds following the last characters typed.
The following diagram illustrates this timing:

CMSg ON|OFF/ON|OFF Default: OFF/OFF
Mode: Packet Host: CM
_________________________________ Parameters: __________________________________
ON - The recorded CTEXT message is sent as the first packet after a
connection is established by a connect request from a distant station.
OFF - The text message is not sent at all.
________________________________________________________________________________
CMSG (default OFF) enables or disables automatic transmission of the CTEXT
message when your PK-900 accepts a connect request from another station on
each Radio Port.
Set CMSG ON to give others a message when they connect to your PK-900 or
invite them to leave a message on your MailDrop if you are not there.
See MTEXT for a similar MailDrop message feature.
