MCon "n/n" Default: 0/0 (none)
Mode: Packet Host: MC
_________________________________ Parameters: __________________________________
"n" - 0 to 6 signifies various levels of monitor indications
________________________________________________________________________________
Use MCON for selective monitoring of other packet traffic while connected to a
distant station. MCON works in similar fashion to MONITOR, but affects your
display only while you are connected to another station. A different MCON
value may be set for each radio port.
If MCON is set to a value between "1" and "5," frames meant for you are
displayed as though monitoring was OFF. You'll see only the data. If MCON is
set to "6," frames meant for you are displayed as any other monitored frame.
The headers appear together with the data.
The meanings of the parameter values are:
0 Monitoring while connected is disabled.
1 Only unnumbered (UI) frames resulting from an unconnected transmission are
displayed. Use this for an "unproto," roundtable type QSO. This setting
also display beacons.
2 Numbered (I) frames are also displayed. Use this to monitor connected
conversations in progress.
3 Connect request (SABM or "C") frames and disconnect (DISC or "D") frames
are also displayed with the headers.
4 Unnumbered acknowledgment (UA) of connect- and disconnect-state frames are
also displayed with either the characters "UA" or "DM" and a header.
5 Receive Ready (RR), Receive Not Ready (RNR), Reject (RJ), Frame Reject
(FRMR) and (I)-Frames are also displayed.
6 Poll/Final bit, PID and sequence numbers are also displayed.
