PK-88 OPERATING MANUAL
When TXFLOW and XFLOW are ON, the PK-88 uses the Start and Stop characters (set by XON and
XOFF) to control the input from the terminal.
Unless TRFLOW is also ON, only hardware flow control is available to the computer or terminal to
control output from the PK-88.
If the PK-88 Start and Stop characters are set to $00, hardware flow control will always be se-
lected regardless of the setting of TXFLOW.
UNPROTO call1 [VIA call2[,call3 .... call9]]
Parameters: call1
call2-9 Optional digipeater call list, up to eight calls.
UNPROTO sets the digipeat and destination address fields of packets sent in the unconnected (un-
protocol) mode.
Unconnected packets are sent as unsequenced I-frames with the destination and digipeat fields
taken from 'call1' through 'call9' options. When a destination is not specified, unconnected packets
are sent to 'CQ.'
Unconnected packets sent from other packet stations can be monitored by setting MONITOR to a
value greater than '1' and setting MFROM to ALL.
The digipeater list can also be used for beacon packets.
To send a beacon message through one or more digipeaters, type the following:
UNPROTO BEACON VIA WX1AAA,WX2BBB,WX3CCC
cmd:
Your beacon is routed to and repeated by each of the digipeaters in the order listed.

USERS 2 allows incoming connections on logical channels 0 and 1
USERS 3 allows incoming connections on logical channels 0, 1 and 2,
and so on, through USERS 10.
