Operating the transceiver from a computer
2110 SSB Transceiver Reference Manual 283
sound command
Use the sound command to:
• display the current status of ALE sounding operations, that is, on or off
• enable or disable ALE sounding operations
• initiate an ALE sounding operation
The sound command may be used regardless of the scanning state of the transceiver. It
will occur in all ALE/CALM networks that have a valid self address and are set to be
scanned. ALE sounding operations will not occur if the transceiver is in a link with
another transceiver.
Syntax
sound
sound on
sound off
sound now [from <self address>[@<network>]]
where:
sound displays the current status of ALE sounding operations.
on enables automatic ALE sounding to occur in networks that have a sounding interval
set (see page 128, Programming the Network List).
off disables automatic ALE sounding operations from the command interface.
now initiates an ALE sounding operation in all ALE/CALM networks that have a valid
self address and are set to be scanned.
from <self address>[@<network>] initiates an ALE sounding operation on
the specified self address in all ALE/CALM networks that are set to be scanned and for
which this self address is valid.
NOTE
The sound command will only have an effect in transceivers that have
the MIL-STD-188-141B ALE option installed.
NOTE
For more information on:
• address syntaxes see page 254, Addresses in commands
• call options see page 256, ALE call options
• recognised variables see page 256, Recognised variable expansion
