4.8 Transmit/Receive Message Memory

The transmit message memory stores up to 50 transmitted mes- sages (numbered 1 to 50) on a first-in, first-out basis. This means each time you save a transmitted message it is filed as log no. 1 and the log no. of all previously stored transmit messages changes by one. When the memory is full the oldest file is deleted.
