CHECKSUM OK
When performing a hard reset, this message indicates that the Kantronics
firmware EPROM has passed the internal checksum test.
cmd:
This is the Command Mode's prompt for input. Any characters entered after the
TNC prints ―cmd:‖ will be used as command input and not packet data.
Command not available in NEWUSER mode
This message indicates that you have attempted to change one of the
commands in the TNC, but that command is not currently available to you. This
occurs when the INTFACE command is set to NEWUSER. To enable all
commands, set INTFACE TERMINAL.
*** connect request:
A remote packet station has attempted to connect to you, but there is not a valid
stream available for the connection. The remote station will be sent a busy
message packet. See the USERS and MAXUSERS commands for setting more
streams and allowing more connects at one time if desired. Also be sure CONOK
is ON.
*** CONNECTED to call [VIA digi1....digi8]
A packet connection has taken place. This can happen by you issuing a connect
request or a connect request coming in from a remote station. ―call‖ will be the
callsign entered in the remote stations MYCALL and if a path was used it will be
shown.
*** DISCONNECTED
The packet connection no longer exists.
EH?
This is the TNC's generalized ―I don't understand‖ message. A dollar sign ($) is
used to point to the offending character. It will also appear if a required input item
is missing, e.g.:
C KV7B V
EH?
In this example, the required callsign after the VIA option is missing. Most
commands that receive an EH? error are ignored. In a few cases, part of the
command may be accepted and acted upon, as described under the message
―Input ignored‖.
ENTER YOUR CALLSIGN=>
Type in your callsign. The TNC needs to know who you are to properly
implement its protocol. Your callsign will be placed in the MYCALL parameter
and used to generate the MYNODE and MYPBBS callsigns, and the CWIDTEXT.
xxxx FREE BYTES
This message indicates how many additional characters may be entered into the
TNC packet buffer before the buffer is full.
