TELEPHONE COMMANDS Telephone commands are the same as standard commands, but allow a method to pass along a telephone number to be checked
by the accept and reject tables. Telephone commands are processed just like standard commands, but the repeater user can
include a telephone number or auto dial number along with the command name. The telephone number that is entered with this
command will be checked by the accept and reject table before it is allowed to be executed. In the macro data memory, the
telephone off-hook S-Command 82 must be included for the command to operate correctly. On-hook S-Command 820 does not
have to be processed by a telephone user command. This type of command is better placed in a standard user command, as it
does not require telephone number information.
USER S-COMMANDS Think of user S-Commands as just renamed S-Commands. User S-Commands are processed just like standard commands.
User S-Commands can, but do not have to, pass a data field to the actual S-Command.
Use the user S-Commands for simple applications. Use standard commands for applications with multiple S-Commands. The
following example will allow a user to lock on the repeater transmitter for a set time.
1. Un-lock the controller with your password.
2. Send “61 025 2 1 005 21” and un-key, you should hear a speech response to confirm the data you entered.
The “61” is the user S-Command.
The 025 is the user command storage location.
The 2 is the command type, User S-Command.
The “1” is the group number for this command.
The “005” is the force PTT on for x time S-Command. This item requires a leading zero.
The “21” is the name of the user S-Command.
3. Send “69” and to lock the controller and save your data.
4. Send “22 15” and un-key, you should hear a speech message “fifteen seconds”. You should notice that the repeater
transmitter has stayed keyed for 15 seconds. The “22” is the name of the user S-Command and the 15 was the data that is
passed to S-Command 05.
5. You now have a user command to force on the repeater transmitter.
WILDCARD COMMANDS Wildcard commands allow extra digits to be included with the command. These extra digits can then be passed to one or more
S-Commands within the macro that the wildcard command calls. Multiple groups of digits can be passed to multiple
S-Commands in the macro. The wildcard commands digits will replace all "Bxx" in the macro with the digits from the user
command. Within the Bxx wildcard, the first “x” is an index and defines the first position of the data to use. The first character
in the wildcard data is character zero (0). The second “x” is the number of characters to use in the wildcard. Zero (0) will
cause the controller to use the remaining characters in the wild card. See the following example:
Define a wildcard command with “14” as the name of the command. This command will set the frequency of a 2-meter remote
base radio. When the user enters “14652” the controller will define 652 as the wildcard data. In the macro, include the
following S-Command (91 12 14 B00 #2). The “91 12” will set the receive frequency. The “14” defines the first two digits in
the frequency. The “B00” tells the controller to use all characters in the wild card. The “#2” sets the transmitter to simplex.
You could create a “*14” and “#14” command to set plus and minus offsets. The end effect is the same as programming
S-Command “91 12 14653 #2”.
In this example, define a wildcard command with “*5” as the name of the command. This command will send a key transmitter
time to a controller attached to the auxiliary buss. When the user enters “*5355” the controller will define 355 as the wildcard
data. In the macro, include the following S-Command (A B01 05 B10). The “A” will address a controller on the auxiliary
buss. The “B01” will get the first character (3) and add it to the command, defining the controller on the auxiliary buss that will
receive the S-Command. The “05” will set the TX on for x time. And the “B10” will tell the controller to use the remaining
digits (55) starting from digit 1, the second digit. The end result is the same as programming S-Command “A3 05 55”
EXITING PROGRAMMING MODE Remember to execute an S-Command 69 0 to lock and discard your changes or 69 1 to lock and save your changes when you
are finished with the programming mode. The controller will also exit the S-Command mode after 5 minutes of no DTMF
activity. You may discover this by an unexpected automatic function complete. Remember in the programming mode only
S-Commands are functional. After exiting the programming mode, only user commands are functional.
