Temporarily Disabling ID's And Timeout Timer

The RC-210 allows for easy use when "broadcasting" special events, such as a WestLink bulletin or Shuttle Audio event. By
programming a Command Macro with the appropriate function(s), you can disable IDs on a Port and suspend its Timeout timer for 30
minutes. When the special event is over, you use another Command Macro to re-enable the IDs and timer. And if you combine these
powerful features with the scheduler, you can set up the RC-210 to completely handle most of the tasks associated with this usually
cumbersome chore.
Macro Functions
252 Stop ID And Disable Timeout Timer Port 1
253 Stop ID And Disable Timeout Timer Port 2
254 Stop ID And Disable Timeout Timer Port 3
256 Resume ID And Re-Enable Timeout Timer Port 1
257 Resume ID And Re-Enable Timeout Timer Port 2
258 Resume ID And Re-Enable Timeout Timer Port 3
Example: Program Command Macro 11 to suspend ID and Timeout Timer on Port 1, link Port 1 to Port 2 to allow a WestLink broadcast
that is transmitted via a link on Port 2.
*4002 11 252 118
If the event lasts longer than 30 minutes, you can simply run Command Macro 11 again to restart the 30 minute suspend period.
At the end of the event, Command Macro 12 to resume IDs and re-enable the Timeout Timer on Port 1, unlink Ports 1 & 2:
*4002 12 256 122

DTMF Memories

There are 20 DTMF memories, which can store up to 10 DTMF digits each. This is useful for sending preformatted DTMF digits to one
(or any combination) of the radio ports. Maybe you'll use them to control a remote link or an IRLP or EchoLink node.
Once programmed, the memories can then be recalled in any Command Macro.
*2105xx y y y y y y y y y y where "xx " is the number of the memory (01-20) and y up to 10 DTMF digits.

DTMF Digits Duration and Time Between Digits

To accommodate different radio link paths, you can program both the duration and time between DTMF Memory digits:
*2106x where "x" is the duration of each DTMF digit transmitted. The range is 1 to 255 milliseconds.
*2107x where "x" is the time between DTMF digits. The range is 1 to 255 miliseconds.
