7.3Preparing Programs for Automatic Message Transmission

This section shows you how to prepare the programs necessary for automatic message transmission. The programs, which you can save to a floppy disk for future use, enable unattended automatic transmission.

The program for automatic transmission is called a macrofile. You will need several types of macrofiles depending on the MARITEX service to be utilized.

Commands

The tables which follow describe the commands for automatic trans- mission.

Table 7-2 describes the commands processed by the DP-6.
