MFJ-1278B MULTI-MODE

SYSTEM MESSAGES

?not enough

You did not give enough arguments for a command that expects several parameters. For example the command to initiate a beacon every 10 seconds is B E 1. If you issue the command B E the MFJ-1278B gives this message. The MFJ-1278B knows there is supposed to be another argument.

?not while connected

You attempted to change MYCALL or AX25L2V2 while in a connected or connecting state. In order to eliminate this message either disconnect or halt the connect attempt, then change MYCALL or AX25L2V2.

?range

A numeric argument for a command was too large.

?too long

You entered too long a command line, and the line was ignored. This might happen, for example, if you try to enter too long a message with BTEXT or CTEXT. If you get this message, the previous text entry was not changed.

?too many

You gave too many arguments for a command that expects several parameters. For example, MFILTER if you issue the below MFILTER command to the MFJ-1278B:

cmd: MFILTER $1B,$0C,$1A,$03,$07 ?too many

The MFJ-1278B gives the ?TOO MANY message because the maximum arguments for the MFILTER command is 4.

?VIA

This message appears if you attempt to enter more than one callsign for the CONNECT or UNPROTO commands without being proceeded by the VIA keyword. For example:

C AA5XO AA5MT (No VIA between callsigns)

should be

C AA5XO VIA AA5MT Notice the VIA between callsigns.
