6.51 LOg
Remote
This command reads the PTC log entries. The last 16 PACTOR/AMTOR contacts are
displayed (except Unproto contacts). The Log entries can be erased with a RESTart (a
total reset) or at power-off.
The following extra information in the callsign field is also available:
S1: PACTOR-1 (Sysop call)
S2: PACTOR-2 (Sysop call)
S3 PACTOR-3 (Sysop call
P1: PACTOR-1 (Rx call)
P2: PACTOR-2 (Rx call)
P3 PACTOR-3 (Rx call)
AT: AMTOR
X: Packet (AX.25)
AMTOR links are only entered in the Logbook after a successful LOGIn!
After the call the used scan channel (1-16) is displayed in a new column (CH) in the PTC-
Log. If the scanner was not activated a 0 is displayed as scan channel. The extended log is
only displayed if at least one of the shown connections was started out of a scan process
of the PTC.
Packet-Radio entries begin with X (from AX.25) followed by the number of the port
where the connect took place. The logbook entries are made only after a disconnect, so
that by multiple simultaneous logged in users, the logbook entries might not appear in
strictly chronological order.
6.52 LOGIn
Remote
In order to allow access to the PTC mailbox in AMTOR, a user station must first Login
using the LOGIn command e.g. LOGI DL1ZAM. The user's callsign is thus made
available to the PTC mailbox. Only after a correct LOGIn can the AMTOR user station
send, read or delete files from the mailbox. A successful LOGIn also writes the user's
callsign into the Log book page.
LOGIn can also be used by the sysop. This allows the callsign of the other station to be
entered into the PTC to enable full mailbox access, without the station having to go
through the full LOGIn procedure. In PACTOR, this would be needed only in
exceptional circumstances, as an automatic LOGIn is performed. The call of the other
station is essential for the correct operation of the PACTOR QRT protocol, so that
changes during a link could influence the QRT procedure.
In the STBY condition, LOGIn displays the call of the last connected station. This call
will also be used for a Connect command without argument. An argument (call) after
LOGIn can be used to preset a call for the next master-connect without argument.
With a remote access using PACTOR, a LOGIn command will cause an error message.
