PK-232 – MBX OPERATING MANUAL COMMAND SUMMARY
4/91 A-70 195
RESET Immediate Command
Mode: Command Host: RS
RESET is an immediate command that resets all parameters to PK-232's PROM default settings and
reinitializes the PK-232. All personalized parameters, monitor lists and MailDrop messages will be
lost.
RESptime "n" Default: 0 (000 msec.)
Mode: Packet Host: RP
Parameters: "n" - 0 to 250 specifies 100-millisecond intervals.
RESPTIME adds a minimum delay before your PK-232 sends acknowledgment packets. This delay
may run concurrently with the default wait time set by DWAIT and any random wait in effect.
During a file transfer, RESPTIME can help avoid data/ack collisions caused by the sending stations
TNC pausing briefly between transmitted data frames.
RESTART Immediate Command
Mode: Command Host: RT
RESTART is an immediate command that reinitializes the PK-232 while retaining the user's settings.
The effect of the RESTART command is the same as turning the PK-232 OFF, then ON again.
RESTART does not reset the values in bbRAM. See the RESET command.
REtry "n" Default: 10
Mode: Packet Host: RY
Parameters: "n" - 0 to 15 specifies the maximum number of packet-retries.
The AX.25 protocol uses the retransmission of frames that have not been acknowledged as a
means to insure that ALL transmitted frames are received. The number of retries that the PK-232
will attempt is set by the RETRY command (default 10). If the number of retries is exceeded, the
packet link may be lost.
RFec ON|OFF Default: ON
Mode: AMTOR Host: RF
Parameters: ON - Mode B (FEC) signals are displayed in AMTOR Standby (default).
OFF - Mode B (FEC) signals are not displayed in AMTOR Standby.
Turn the RFEC command OFF to prevent the reception and display of all FEC signals received while
in AMTOR Standby.
