Low Speed / High Speed; Slow Rate; Fast Rate; Programming A Packet Path - Kenwood TH-D72A Instruction Manual

SmartBeaconing Operation:
Speed
Above the <High
<Fast Rate>
Speed>
The interval is
Under <High
calculated using the
Speed>
following formula:
Over <Low Speed>
(Transmission Interval
(Only when the set
= <Fast Rate> x
<High Speed> ≧
<High Speed> ÷
<Low Speed>)
Speed)
Below the <Low
<Slow Rate>
Speed>
Transmission Interval Example:
(with <Low Speed> = 5, <High Speed> = 70, <Slow Rate>
= 30 min, <Fast Rate> = 120 sec)
Speed
80 120 seconds (2 minutes)
70 120 seconds (2 minutes)
50 168 seconds (2 minutes 48 seconds)
30 280 seconds (4 minutes 40 seconds)
20 420 seconds (7 minutes)
10 840 seconds (14 minutes)
5 1680 seconds (28 minutes)
0 1800 seconds (30 minutes)

PROGRAMMING A PACKET PATH

Access Menu 3H0.
Select the packet path type from "New-N", "Relay",
"Region", or "Others".
When you press [MHz], the " " icon appears on the left
side of the packet path type, showing the current used
information.
New-N:
This digipeat type has been used mainly in North America,
but is now used worldwide.
1 Set the <Type> to "New-N", then press [MHz].
2 Set WIDE 1-1 to "Off" or "On".
• Set <Wide 1-1> to "On" to use the digipeater of the Fill-in
type (RELAY type) with <New-N>.
• When set to "On", 1 packet path in addition to <Wide 1-1>
can be used, as per the <Total Hops> setting.
3 Select the relay step number for the <Total Hops>
setting.
