To Program Your Own ID's:
The following instructions and the above example should be enough to get your ID's
programmed for port 1. More details about how everything works internally will follow, but
aren't needed just to get started. The following commands can be entered either from a radio
with a DTMF pad or from a computer or serial terminal.
053 220 064 230 <word numbers from Appendix B>
053 222 064 230 <word numbers from Appendix B>
053 224 064 230 <word numbers from Appendix B>
053 226 064 230 <word numbers from Appendix B>
053 228 064 230 <word numbers from Appendix B>
053 230 030 <CW characters from Appendix C>
To program the ID's for port 2, use the following:
053 221 064 231 <word numbers from Appendix B>
053 223 064 231 <word numbers from Appendix B>
053 225 064 231 <word numbers from Appendix B>
053 227 064 231 <word numbers from Appendix B>
053 229 064 231 <word numbers from Appendix B>
053 231 030 <CW characters from Appendix C>
As long as you want your initial ID's to be voice and polite and your impolite ID to be CW, you
don't need to worry about what the above commands do. If you want to do something different,
read the following section.
More about Programming ID's:
The above instructions for programming ID's are typical of how all of the macros in the
controller can be programmed. It may look complicated at first, but it all follows a pattern.
The 053 at the beginning of each line tells the controller to erase anything that might already be
in the macro because you want to start over and put the following stuff in instead. The next
three digits are the number of the macro. A list of all of the macros can be found in Chapter 8.
Then comes the stuff that gets put into the macro. 064 and 030 are command numbers - you
can look them up elsewhere in this manual - that speak polite voice messages and send CW
messages. The rest of the line is information that is used by command 064 or 030 when the
macro is executed. 064 need to know two things: what message to speak, and what to do if
you key up during the message. The first three digits after the 064 is the number of the impolite
ID macro, which is usually CW; that is what 064 does if you key up during the message. The
rest of the digits are the word numbers that tell it what to say. 030 doesn't need to know what to
do if you key up while it is sending CW, so it just needs to know what CW characters you want
to send. Chapter 8 has more information about programming macros and commands 064 and
030 have more information about the information they need.
Some variations on these macros would be:
Make all of the ID's CW. To do this, use 030 and CW character numbers rather than 064,
just like the impolite ID macro in the example.
