8BITCONV ON|OFF
Mode: Packet
Parameters:
ON -
OFF - The high-order bit IS stripped in Converse Mode.
8BITCONV
permits packet transmission of 8-bit data in Converse Mode.
8BITCONV
If
is OFF, the high-order bit (bit seven) of characters received from the terminal is re-
moved before the characters are transmitted in a packet.
The standard ASCII character set requires only seven bits – the eighth or final bit is used as a pa-
rity bit or ignored.
Setting bit seven in text characters transmitted over the air may cause confusion at the other
end.
If you need to transmit eight-bit data but don't want all the features of Transparent Mode, set
8BITCONV
AWLEN
ON and
set.
Because commands require only the standard seven-bit ASCII character set, bit seven is always re-
moved in Command Mode.
AAB text
Mode: Baudot, ASCII, AMTOR
Parameters:
text - Any combination of characters up to a maximum of 17 characters.
AAB
Use the
command to enter an acknowledgment text in the ANSWERBACK section of the PK-
232's memory. AAB sends automatic confirmation in Baudot, ASCII and AMTOR operation in re-
sponse to a distant station's
sages used only in the Packet Mode. Set

AAB {17-character text}

Mode: ASCII
Parameters:

The available
ASCII data rates are: 45, 50, 57, 75, 100, 150, 200 and 300 bauds.
ABAUD
Example:
300
ABAUD
sets the radio ("on air") baud rate only in the ASCII operating mode. This value has no re-
lationship to your computer or terminal program's baud rate.
ASCII RTTY operation requires you to use the same rate used by the distant station.
