BUILT-IN TNC COMMAND LIST

Although the built-in TNC supports the following commands, the TNC does not support the digipeater functions due to the limited RAM capacity.

Command	Short	Default	Parameter	Description
Name
AUTOLF	AU	ON	ON/ OFF	When ON, sends a line feed (LF) to the computer after
				each carriage return (CR).
AWLEN	AW	8	7/ 8	Sets the length of bits between TNC and its host.
			EVERY/	If set to EVERY, sends a beacon packet at intervals of the
BEACON	B	EVERY 0	AFTER n	specified period (n). If set to AFTER, sends a beacon
			(n = 0 ~	packet only once after the specified period (n). The unit of
			250)	n is 10 seconds.
BTEXT	BT	—	0 ~ 159	Specifies the content of the data portion of a beacon
			characters	packet.
CALIBRAT	CAL	—	—	Sends a space/mark square wave (50/50 ratio). Enter Q to
				exit Calibrate mode and restore the Command mode.
CHECK	CH	30	0 ~ 250	Specifies the interval from signal drop-out until execution of
				disconnection. The unit of the parameter is 10 seconds.
			Call1 (VIA	Sends a connect request. Call1 is the call sign of the
CONNECT	C	—	call2, call3,	station to be connected to. Call2 to call9 are call signs of
			... call9)	stations to be digipeated through.
CONVERSE	CONV or K	—	—	Causes the TNC to enter Converse mode. Press
				[Ctrl]+[C] to restore the Command mode.
CPACTIME	CP	OFF	ON/ OFF	When ON and in Converse mode, sends a packet at
				intervals of the period determined by PACTIME.
CR	CR	ON	ON/ OFF	When ON, appends a carriage return (CR) to all packets to
				be sent.
DISCONNE	D	—	—	Sends a disconnect request.
				Causes the TNC to display the current status of all the
				commands. You can also specify a class identifier A, C, H,
				I, L, M, or T to display the status of only the desired
				command class. Enter a space between the command
				name and a class identifier; ex. DISPLAY H.
DISPLAY	DISP	—	—	A (ASYNC): RS-232C port parameters
				C (CHAR): Special TNC characters
				H (HEALTH): Counter parameters
				I (ID): ID parameters
				L (LINK): TNC-to-TNC link status
				M (MONITOR): Monitor parameters
				T (TIMING): Timing parameters
				Specifies the interval from no carrier detection until
DWAIT	DW	30	0 ~ 250	execution of transmission. The unit of the parameter is 10
				milliseconds.
ECHO	E	ON	ON/ OFF	When ON, causes the TNC to echo received characters to
				the computer.
				The other station sends a notice (packet) to you if it is not
FIRMRNR	FIR	OFF	ON/ OFF	ready to receive data. When ON, receiving such a notice
				causes the TNC to suspend transmission until it receives a
				“ready” notice.
