Use the
MYCALL
command to
load
your
call sign into
your
PK-96-its default
call
sign
is
present in
the
ROM when the system is manufactured. This artihcial call must be changed before
operation.
The SSID is usually added so the PK-96 can respond to two different tasks-as a
"base"
station and digi-
peater,
a digipeater and MailDrop, or a base station and MailDrop.
An example of using the SSID
sr"rflix is
given
in
Chapter 5:
Packet
Operation.
Two or more stations can't use the same call and SSID on the
air at the same time. Use
a diff'erent SSID
if'
this is the case.

"Call" is
the call

of the
node function of
your
PK-96. Stations can connect to
your
MYGATE call and
then issue a connect reqllest from there. This way,
your

ON
The

doesn't
return
to
the
Command
mode at disconnect.
Your PK-96 always
switches to a
data transfer
mode-Transparent,
Converse, or Command-at the time
of connection unless NOMODE is ON. NEWMODE determines
how
your
PK-96
behaves
when the link
is broken.
With NEWMODE ON, when the link is disconnected
(or
if the connect attempt fails), the
PK-96 returns
to the Command mode. With NEWMODE
OFF, when the
link is disconnected, the PK-96
remains in
Converse or Transparent mode unless
you
"rnanually"
force
it to retum to the Command
mode"
