mediately after receiving the CS-command (see note), do
NOT enter a TF-command value.
Even though you may send a TF command to the ADFM, you
must also send the CS command before deploying the ADFM.
If the entry is not valid, the ADFM sends an error message
and does not update the wake-up time. If the TF entry is a
time that has already passed, the ADFM may have to wait 100
years before awakening, so be careful when entering the TF
value.
Sets the minimum time between pings.

mm = 00-59 minute
ss = 00-59 second
ff = 00-99 hundredths of seconds
TP00:00.00
The ADFM interleaves individual pings within a group so
they are evenly spread throughout the ensemble.
During the ensemble interval set by TE , the ADFM transmits
the number of pings set by the WP-command. TP determines
the spacing between the pings. If TP = 0, the ADFM pings as
quickly as it can based on the time it takes to transmit each
ping plus the overhead that occurs for processing. Several
commands determine the actual ping time (WF, WN, WS, and
actual water depth).
