HID ON|OFF
Parameters:
ON
-
The PK-88 sends HDLC identification as a digipeater.
OFF -
The PK-88 does not send HDLC identification.
The HID command activates or disables the PK-88's automatic periodic transmission of
identification packets when operating as a digipeater. This identification consists of
an unsequenced I-frame with your station identification (MYCALL) and MYALIAS in the
data field.
•
Set HID ON to force the PK-88 to send an ID packet every 9.5 minutes while used
as a digipeater.
•
Set HID OFF to stop the PK-88 from sending any ID packets.
•
The HID identification packet is addressed to "ID".
•
Your station identification is the call sign set with the MYCALL command, with
'digipeater' appended.
For example, you've set MYCALL to WX1AAA-8 and HID is ON. The resulting automatic
identification transmission looks like:
WX1AAA-8>ID
(MYALIAS), WX1AAA digipeater
NOTE:
You cannot change the 9.5-minute automatic interval timing.
