Disconne
Immediate command
This command will initiate an immediate command disconnect request on the current I/O stream.
When an acknowledgment is received, your KAM Plus will display the message *** DISCON-
NECTED. If you issue a second disconnect command before receiving the acknowledgment, your
KAM Plus will immediate enter the DISCONNECTED state, but this may leave the other station
thinking it is still connected.

Disconnect MYPBBS
Issue this command if you want to cause the personal mailbox to issue a disconnect to the user of
the mailbox. D MYPBBS is what you should type, do not type the call entered in the mypbbs com-
mand.
Disconnect MYNODE
x
(
x
= KA-Node circuit)
x
may be any of the KA-Node circuits in use, designated by A, B, C, etc. This command will cause
the node to disconnect the stations linked through the node on the circuit specified. MYNODE does
not refer to the call entered in the mynode command, but is the actual characters to type.
DISPlay [class]
This command will display a list of parameters in the KAM Plus. If you do not specify a class, all
parameters will be displayed. You may display one specific class of related parameters by specify-
ing the class with the display command, The classes of parameters are:
(A)sync asynchronous port parameters (KAM Plus to computer)
(AM)tor parameters affecting AMTOR (ARQ and FEC) and NAVTEX/AMTEX Modes
(ASC)ii parameters affecting ASCII Mode
(C)haracter special KAM Plus characters
(CW) parameters affecting CW Mode
(G)tor parameters affecting G-TOR Mode
(I)d ID parameters
(L)ink parameters affecting packet link (KAM Plus to other TNC)
(M)onitor monitor parameters
(P)bbs mailbox parameters
(PT) parameters affecting PACTOR Mode
(R)tty parameters affecting RTTY Mode
(T)iming timing parameters
(X)tra some transmission related parameters, such as FSKINV
Individual parameters may be displayed by entering the command name followed by a carriage re-
turn.
DWait
n
(
n
= 0 – 255)
Default 0
This value is used to avoid collisions with digipeated packets. The KAM Plus will wait
n
× 10 milli-
seconds after last hearing data on the channel before it begins its own key-up sequence. When
this method of collision avoidance is used, the value is normally agreed upon by users in the local
area. Most PACKET operators are now using the PERSIST/SLOTTIME method of collision avoidance
and setting DWAIT to 0.
