at any time to check the PK-96's
connect
status. If
you're
in the
process
of try-
ing to connect
to another station,
you'll
see the message:
Link

CONOK is included only to maintain upward compatibility with the TAPR TNCs and some
BBS
software
that depend on this command being there. The command CFROM is much more
versatile, and
should
bc
used instead of CONOK.
Make sure that
CFROM is set to ALL if
your
software needs CONOK.

CONVERSE is an immediate
command that causes the PK-96 to switch from the
Command
mode to the
Converse mode. The letter
"K"
may
also be used.
Once the PK-96 is in the
Converse
mode, all
the characters typed into the keyboard are transmitted by
your
radio. To retum
the
PK-96
to the Command mode, type the Command mode entry character,
(CTRL-C).
