H is configured to repeat all messages to/from E
, D, and G. B is configured to
repeat all messages to/from C, and D is configured to repeat all messages
to/from G.
The following table illustrates one possible way the M7s could be programmed to
accomplish this type of system.

Store-and-forward repeating is enabled with the ATXR command. ATXR 1
enables repeating. ATXR 0 disables it.
The Repeat Source, Repeat Source Mask, and the Repeat Destination are
programmed into a Repeater Table in the M7. The ATX command is used to
program the Repeater Table. The Repeater Table may have up to 4 entries.
For example, M7 B in the above example will have two entries in its Re
peater
Table. The command to set the two entries is:
ATX1 1020 FFFF 1000 FFFF
ARX2 1000 FFFF 1000 FFFF
The first command above sets the Repeat Source to 1020 and the Repeat
Destination to 1000, both with a Mask of FFFF. The FFFF mask means all digits
of the source and destination are used to determine if the transmission should be
repeated. All packets from units with MYID 1020 (
C) sent to 1000 will be
r
epeated by this unit. It will not repeat messages from D, E, F, G, or H because
their Unit IDs are not in the Repeat Source repeater table.
The second command above sets the Repeat Source to 1000 and the Repeat
Destination to 1000, both with a Mask of FFFF. The FFFF mask means all digits
of the source and destination are used to determine if the transmission should be
repeated. All packets from units with MYID 1000 (A)sent 1000 will be repeated
by
this unit. In other words, all transmissions from A will be repeated by B.
