The Network List
2110 SSB Transceiver Reference Manual 125
However, if the receiving station determines that the address is available in a Group
network only, it will select the Group network on which to establish the link. Data
communications within this link will not be successful because the initiating station does
not have the password for the Privacy Mode of Group at the receiving station.
If an initiating station starts an ALE call (without data), the receiving station determines
in which networks the address is valid, selects a network with the lowest Privacy Mode
available, then establishes the link. Data communications may proceed as per the Privacy
Modes of the selected sending and receiving networks.
Privacy Password
The Privacy Password setting applies to Codan Selcall and ALE/CALM networks where
the Privacy Mode has been set to Group or Registered. The privacy password is the
password that enables you to use the Privacy Mode mentioned above. It can be up to
15 characters long.
Nominal Preamble
The Nominal Preamble setting applies to Codan Selcall and ALE/CALM networks only.
The nominal preamble is the length of the preamble signal sent by the transceiver when
you make a call. This is the signal for which other transceivers scan in order to detect
your call.
The nominal preamble should be set to no less than the number of channels in the
network multiplied by the call detect time. If you set the Nominal Preamble to <default>
the transceiver will calculate the length of preamble at the time of the call, based upon
the number of channels in the network. If you are calling a station that uses identical
network information, the preamble of the initiating station will match the detection
requirements of the receiving station. If such stations are scanning a different number of
networks, then the nominal preamble should be calculated on a per station basis.
If a transceiver that you want to call scans multiple networks, the preamble can be
increased to the time it takes that transceiver to scan all of its channels.
