rptmode Repeater mode
This command enables or disables repeater mode. Please refer to chapter 4 for
a detailed overview of the radio modem in repeater mode.
Note that the repeater mode takes precedence over mode setting of ptpmode.
Command format:
rptmode [s]
where: s =
on The radio modem acts as a network repeater for the current site
off Disables repeater mode
all The radio modem acts as a network repeater for all sites
ptpmode Point-to-Point mode setting
Please refer to chapter 4 for an overview of the ptpmode function.
Command format:
ptpmode [s]
where: n =
on Sets the modem to acknowledged reliable point-to-point
operation. This is the default operating mode that provides
network layer functionality thus ensuring transparent error-free
transfer of data between two points.
off Sets the modem to broadcast multidrop network mode. This mode
of operation requires the use of intelligent host devices that
perform network layer functions for data packet addressing,
routing and error control.
slave Sets a remote modem to be a slave device in a point-to-multipoint
configuration. A radio modem, set to this mode, is operationally
identical to setting ptpmode to on. The only difference is that in
this mode a remote slave radio modem cannot initiate a
connection with another remote modem when it has data in its
serial input buffer.
When using acknowledged point-to-multipoint mode, each slave
modem should be configured with ptpmode set to slave. The
master modem will be set with ptpmode to ON.
mmaster Sets a master modem to multimaster network mode. This
mode allows multiple remote modems to establish a connection
and transfer data with a single master modem.
When using multimaster mode, each slave modem should be
configured with ptpmode set to ON. The master modem will be set
with ptpmode to mmaster.
