MFJ-1278B MULTI-MODE

OPERATIONAL COMMANDS

MCTEXT text

Mode: Mailbox

Default: " "

Text: Any combination of characters and spaces, up to 120 characters in length.

The MCTEXT command works like CTEXT except that MCTEXT is sent only when the mailbox MYMcall is connected to. There is no express equivalent to the CMSG ON/OFF command. If MCText is empty, no string is sent. If the is message longer than 120 characters an error message will be given and the command is ignored.

The command string can be cleared by typing the command, and then entering the % sign where the text would normally be entered. Also the RESET command will empty the MCText command.

For example you might want to set your MCText to:

Welcome to the Mailbox... I'm not here right now , but feel free to use the system...Enjoy!

MEND cccc

Mode: AMTOR

Default: nnnn

Parameters:

cccc: specifying a character string of up to 15 characters in length.

The MEND parameter, which may also be up to 15 characters long, is effective when MATCH is ON and a Mode B signal has set off the matching function. The MFJ-1278B will print all of a Mode B transmission received after text matching MBegin is received until text matching the MEND string is received, or the transmission physically ends.

MFILTER n1,[n2],[n3],[n4]

Mode: Packet

Default: none

Parameters:

n0 - $7F, specifying an ASCII character code. Up to 4 characters may be specified.

This command allows you to specify characters to be "filtered," or eliminated from monitored packets. The parameters n1, n2, etc., are the ASCII codes for the characters you want to filter. You can enter the code in either hex or decimal.

For example, if a <CTRL-L> character causes your screen to be cleared, and you don't want this to happen, you can set MFILTER 12. If you also want to eliminate <CTRL-Z>
