for your
transceiver. Subtracting 10 from 20
yields
10, which is the recommended setting for AUDELAY. If
a setting of AUDELAY /0 is too short, then set both TXDELAY and AUDELAY higher.
AUTOBaUd ONOFF
Mode: Command
OFF Autobaud routine active at
power-up
only
if
battery
jumper
is removed.
ON
Autobaud
routine always
present
at
power-up
or RESTART.
With AUTOB AUD
OFF, the PK-96
perfbrms
the autobaud function only when
powering-up
or after a
RESET. With AUTOBAUD
OM the
PK-96
performs
the autobaud
routine
every time
it's
powered-Lrp,
and every time the RESTART
command
is
entered. The stored
parameters
(for
example,
MYCALL) are
saved if the battery
jumper
is
connected.
The
unit displays the autobaud
message at
the
same rate as the
last setting of TBAUD. AUTOBAUD
ON
is helpful
when
moving
the unit
from one computer to another
where the terminal
data
rates
are different.
In the autobaud routine, only one asterisk
(*)
is needed
to
set TBAUD. The autobaud routine detects
ll0,
300,600,
1200,2400,4800
and 9600 bps at either 7 bits, even
parity
or 8 bits, no
parity.
AWlen
n
Mode:
packet
7 or
8 specifies the
number
of data bits
per
word.
The
parameter
value
defines the digital word length
used by
the serial inpuUoutput
(VO)
terminal
port
and
your
computer
or
terminal
program.
AWLEN will most likely
be set
properly
by the PK-96's autobaud routine. Still,
you
may want to change
the ASCII word-length
at some time to accommodate a
particular
terminal
program you
want
to use.
For
plain
text conversations with the PK-96, AWLEN 7
or
I may
be
used. For binary file transfers and
Host
mode operation, AWLEN 8 must
be used.
The FIESTART
command must
be
issued
before a change
in
word
length
takes
effect. Don't change
AWLEN
unless the
terminal
can be chansed to the same settins.

This
command allows the selection of
eitherthe old

or
the curent

Some implementations of version 1 of AX.25

Most users run AX.25 version 2, but this command allows
you
to

to the older version, if necessary, for compatibiliry.
