DAytime yymmddhhmm[ss]
Default 01/01/93 00:00:00
This command sets or reads the real-time clock and software clock in the KAM Plus. The clock de-
termines date and time display in conjunction with the CSTAMP, MHEARD, MSTAMP and
PBBS/Node messages. When entering the daytime digits to set the clock, enter in pure number se-
quence with no spaces, dashes or slashes. Entering the seconds digits is optional, and if not en-
tered, the seconds will be set to 00.

DAYTWeak
n
(
n
= 0 – 15)
Default 8
This command is used to tweak the software clock for accurate time keeping. Increasing the value
will slow the clock, decreasing the value will speed up the clock. Each count corresponds to 0.85
seconds increase or decrease per day. Ambient temperature will affect the clock to some degree.
DBldisc ON | OFF
Default OFF
When OFF, only one disconnect command needs to be given to terminate an unsuccessful connect
attempt. If you are actually connected, the normal disconnect sequence will occur. When ON, a
normal disconnect sequence will always occur. A second disconnect command would be required
to force a local disconnect independent of the retry counter.

(
n
= $00 – $FF)

the last input character is deleted. The most common settings are $08 (backspace) and $7F (de-
lete).

DIddle ON | OFF
Default ON
When ON, a diddle character is sent when no characters are available from the keyboard or buffer
during transmission in RTTY or ASCII Mode. In RTTY the diddle character is the LTRS character; in
ASCII the diddle character is a null. When OFF, a constant MARK frequency is transmitted.
DIGipeat ON | OFF
Default ON/ON
When ON, any packet received that has MYCALL or MYNODE in the digipeat list of its address field
will be retransmitted. Each Station included in the digipeat list relays the packet in the order speci-
fied in the address field. Digipeating takes place concurrently with other KAM Plus operations and
does not interfere with normal connected operation of the station. To disable digipeat operations
(via MYCALL or MYNODE) turn this command OFF.
