Default: None
Examples:
This command is useful for initializing hardware at the repeater site following a
power interuption. A macro can be created that momentarily switches ON one
of the logic outputs; this macro is then triggered by a restart. By the way, this
command has no effect after a cold start since all macros are deleted anyway.
As an example of how this command may be used, assume that macro 3456*
has been created. This command changes the CW frequency to a high pitch.
To trigger this macro from a restart enter:
(PW) 26 00 3456 *
If power at the repeater site should fail and return later, the controller will notify
you since the CW pitch is now higher. You may enter a macro or a control
command that changes the CW pitch back to normal, awaiting the next power
glitch.
