Kantronics KPC–3 Plus User Manual page 161

When OFF, connect requests from other TNCs will not be acknowledged and a <DM>
packet will be sent to the requesting station. The message ―connect request: (callsign of
whoever is trying to connect to you)‖ will be output to your terminal if INTFACE is
TERMINAL or NEWUSER.
When CONOK is OFF, you can still connect to your mailbox.
When operating with multiple connects allowed, the connection will take place on the
next available stream. Connect requests in excess of the number allowed by the
USERS command will receive a <DM> response and the ―connect request: (call)‖
message will be output to your terminal if INTFACE is TERMINAL or NEWUSER.

CONPERM {ON | OFF}
default OFF
Setting CONPERM to ON forces the connection on the current stream to become
permanent and causes the KPC-3 Plus to attempt to reconnect when it is restarted.
CONPERMED connections are shown with /P in the status display, which is generated
by the STAT command.

 CONVERS
immediate
CONVERS has no options. It is an immediate command and will cause entry into
Conversational Mode from Command Mode on the current I/O stream. Any link
connections are not affected.
Hint: K is the same as CONVERS, for quicker entry.

CPACTIME {ON | OFF}
default OFF
When OFF and in the Convers Mode, packets are sent when the SENDPAC character
is entered or when PACLEN is achieved. When ON and in the Convers Mode, packets
are sent at periodic intervals determined by PACTIME. Characters are sent periodically
as in Transparent Mode but the local editing and echoing features of Convers Mode are
enabled.
