Within 1 second type a second <Ctrl+C>
Within 1 second type a third <Ctrl+C>
Wait 1 second and the cmd: prompt should appear
If the guard time of one second before and after the three <Ctrl+C>s is not there, the
TNC assumes that they are data and sends them to the radio, so be sure to allow at
least one second before and after the three <Ctrl+C>s.
Remote Access to Your TNC
You can connect to your TNC from a remote station and change values of your TNC‘s
parameters. This allows you to add or delete stations from the LLIST, change the size of
the PBBS, change the MYCALL and so on, all remotely. Extreme caution must be used
when you are accessing your TNC from a remote location. There is no built-in
safeguard, and as such it is possible for you to change parameters such that the remote
TNC will no longer communicate with you.
In order to change parameters in a remote TNC, the RTEXT in the remote TNC must be
set to a text string that will be used as the password string. For instance, you might set
your RTEXT to:
RTEXT Code
The remote TNC must also have its MYREMOTE set to a unique callsign (i.e. WØABC-
4, or XYZREM). If these two parameters are not set, remote access to the command set
of this TNC is not possible. When these parameters are set, you can connect to the
MYREMOTE callsign of the remote TNC.
When the connection is made, the remote TNC will send three lines of numbers. The
numbers may look like:
1 1 1 3 4 3
3 1 4 3 1 3
2 1 1 2 1 3
You must then pick ONE of these lines and decode the password string. Let‘s say you
choose to decode line 3 (2 1 1 2 1 3). Rewriting your RTEXT string to make this easier
you would have:
Character #: 1 2 3 4
Letter: C o d e
Therefore, to gain remote access, you must send the following string:
oCCoCd
(since small letter o is at position 2, capital C is at position 1, and so on)
Note that case is significant and spaces are considered valid characters.
