Selfid Command - Codan 2110 series Reference Manual

Operating the transceiver from a computer

selfid command

A self address is an address for your station. Other stations can selectively call your
station using your self address. You can set a number of self addresses for your station.
Use the selfid command to:
•
•
•
The initial list of self addresses used by the CICS interface are those that currently exist
in the Address entry in the Control List of the transceiver.
NOTE
Syntax
selfid
selfid <self address>[, <self address>]
where:
selfid displays your current list of self addresses used by the CICS interface.
<self address> sets the self addresses for the CICS interface to the one or more
addresses specified on the command line. The addresses can be simple or fully qualified,
for example, 12359, 12359@*SELCALL, RICKY, or RICKY@PRIMWEST. If a
network is not specified, the self address applies to all networks.
Compatibility with CICS V2
In CICS V2, self addresses must be specified without a network.
Limitations
The only calls displayed are those addressed to the list of self addresses used by the
CICS interface. When the 2110 Manpack Transceiver is switched on, all self addresses
assigned to networks are added to the list of self addresses for CICS by default. When a
self address is added through CICS, these default addresses are removed from the list and
the new one is added.
If the Address entry in the Control List of the transceiver contains wildcard self
addresses, for example, 12.., these are only used by CICS in 3033/RTU–292 mode.

display the current list of self addresses for the CICS interface
create new self addresses for the CICS interface
change the current self addresses for the CICS interface
Changing the list of self addresses used by the CICS interface does not
affect the list of self addresses in the Address entry in the Control List of
the transceiver. The changes are lost when the transceiver is switched off.
If you want to retain a list of self addresses for use with CICS you can
enter them using the RS232 Startup entry in the Control List of the
transceiver (see page 265, RS232 Startup
Manpack Transceiver 2110 series Reference Manual
entry).
