The next prompt is as follows:
STATICN NETWJRK ADDRESS (0100 - 9999):
0100
Enter
the
four-digi t
BCD network address (0100 in the example)
assigned to this station during the planning stage.
This network
address cannot be assigned to any other secondary station
or
to
any
primary
or secondary station or task.
Once assigned, it is
unique within the network and any attempt to assign
the
address
again during NETGEN results in an error message to the terminal.
The ne xt prompt is as follows:
SECDNDARYS MAX MESSAGE S IZ E (1 - 512 BYTES):
128
The
required response to this prompt (128 in the example) varies
for
di ff erent
types
of
secondary
stations.
Ref er
to
the
appropriate
manual
for
the specific type of secondary station.
For TX5, enter 256; for PM550, enter 260; and
for
TM990,
enter
128.
An
entry
of
512 is accepted by NETGEN but a transmi tted
message of that si ze to a TX5, PM550, or TM990 secondary
station
resul ts in an error at the secondary station.
The next prompt is
as follows:
TX5 SECDNDARY STATICN (YIN):
N
The
res};X)nse to this prompt
(N in the example) indicates whether
or not the station is a TX5.
This information is used to
select
the correct wi ndow si ze

The ne xt prompt is as follows:
TM990 SECDNDARY NETVDRK ID (0100 - 9999):
0200
If
the
station is a PM550, enter RETURN.
If it is a TM990, the
resp::>nse (0200 in the example) assigns a network ID to the TM990.
The network ID is then entered in the output NIT (long
form)
at
the
primary
station.
The
TM990 secondary station possesses a
multitasking capability and can
therefore
have
more
than
one
network
ID.
This prompt is repeated until all TM990 network IDs
are entered.
When none remain, enter RETURN to continue
network
generation.
