5.3 Sending and Receiving Messages
The MCC-545C is a packet data radio and therefore enables an operator to
send and receive messages to all units within the FleetTrak™ network.
The messages may be entered from an operator terminal that is connected
to the OPERATOR PORT of the MCC-545C. There are three basic message
types:
1. Free-form text messages
2. Canned messages
3. Commands
The general format for all messages is shown below:
MESSAGE,p,dest1,dest2,...dest n
where: p = any priority level from A (highest) to Z (lowest).
dest n = numerical ID of the station(s) to which the
message will be routed.
The message text is then entered and edited in the Text Edit Buffer. They
are then transferred to one or more Tx Queue buffers for transmission to
the designated destinations.
Figure 14 depicts the general flow of messages within the MCC-545C
software and the various commands associated with each step in the
process.
