Using the 2.4 kbit/s data station
Making a data call
Data calls are made in the background when you send an email via
UUPlus© (or similar), or when transferring a file between terminal
sessions.
NOTE: For information on sending an email via UUPlus©,
please see the documentation provided with the software.
To make a data call:
1 Compose your email in UUPlus© (or similar).
1 Do one of the following:
• If you want to make the call using a specific channel,
switch off scanning on the transceiver’s control point,
then scroll to the channel that you want to use for the call.
• If you want to make the call using an ALE/CALM HF
network, switch on scanning on the transceiver’s control
point.
NOTE: If a channel is common to both HF networks, the
type of HF network used for the call is determined
by the scanning status when the call is made.
1 In UUPlus©, press Send.
NOTE: If you are already in an existing Selcall or
ALE/CALM link, you will be asked to confirm if
you want to override the lock on the system from
the existing link.
