Addresses in commands
Addresses can be specified with or without a network (see page 434, Using addresses
with or without a network). An address in an ALE/CALM network must be upper-case
letters or numbers, @ and ?. An address in a Codan Selcall network must be numbers.
If you have the MIL-STD-188-141B ALE option installed, you can use special ALE
address syntaxes to send ALL, ANY, Group Selective, NET, and Wildcard calls through
any of the existing call commands in CICS (alecall, aletelcall, call,
gpsposition, pagecall, selcall). For more information see page 159, ALL
address syntax, page 160, ANY address syntax, page 161, Group Selective address
syntax, page 162, NET address syntax, and page 163, Wildcard address syntax.
NOTE
You cannot use the ALL, ANY, or Wildcard address syntax in the
alebeacon and beacon commands.
NOTE
The use of the ALL, ANY, Group Selective, NET, or Wildcard address
syntax in the gpsbeacon and statuscall commands will not be
effective due to collisions of responses.
If you enter the ALE
address syntax...
The transceiver will send...
@?@ a global ALL call to all listening stations (see page 159, ALL
address syntax)
@A@ a selective ALL call to listening stations that have an ‘A’ as
the last character of their self address (‘A’ may be any
specified upper-case letter or number), for example, TNAA,
EANBA, 1NCA, 23A (see page 159, ALL address syntax)
@@? a global ANY call to all listening stations (see page 160, ANY
address syntax)
@@A a selective ANY call to listening stations that have an ‘A’ as
the last character of their self address (‘A’ may be any
specified upper-case letter or number), for example, TNAA,
EANBA, 1NCA, 23A (see page 160, ANY address syntax)
@AB a double selective ANY call to listening stations that have
‘AB’ as the last two characters of their self address (‘A’ and
‘B’ may be any specified upper-case letter or number), for
example, BAAB, 14BAB, Q2CAB, 1AB (see page 160, ANY
address syntax)
