Making and receiving calls
2110 SSB Transceiver Reference Manual 159
ALL address syntax
If you want to send an ALE call to any station that is tuned to the same frequency in an
ALE/CALM network or scanning the network, make a call through the Emergency,
Message, Phone, Selective, and Send Position call types using the ALL address syntax
(see page 167, Emergency call, page 168, Message call, page 169, Phone call, page 169,
Selective call, and page 170, Send Position call). The ALL call does not specifically call
any stations, and does not request any automatic responses from stations that enter the
link. Stations can be configured to accept or to ignore ALL calls.
The global ALL address syntax is @?@. All stations detecting the call will enter an ALE
link with the initiating station, if enabled to do so. The group of linking stations can be
narrowed by using a selective ALL address syntax. In this address, the ? is replaced by
an upper-case letter or number, for example, @A@. All stations detecting the call that
have this letter or number as the last character in their self address for the ALE/CALM
network will enter the link.
If you send a selective ALL call to a group of stations, you can send another selective
ALL call to bring more stations into the link. For example, if you initially call @A@, all
stations tuned to the same frequency in an ALE/CALM network or scanning the network
with an ‘A’ as the last character of their self address will enter the link. If you follow this
with a call to @B@, then a further group of stations with ‘B’ as the last character of their
self address will also enter the link. If the receiving stations are already in a link, this link
will be closed and a new link created with the new call.
Alternatively, you can send multiple ALL addresses together to make a call to a range of
stations, for example, @A@,@B@.
NOTE
The ALL address syntax may be used if the FED-STD-1045 ALE/CALM
option or MIL-STD-188-141B ALE option is installed in the transceiver.
NOTE
You cannot use the ALL address syntax in the Channel Test, Get Position,
or Get Status call type.
NOTE
For information on entering text in a call address see page 56, Entering
text in an ALE call address.
NOTE
When you use an ALL address syntax through the Selective call type, the
call icon will change to the ALL call icon ( ) when the call is started.
