PK-232 – MBX OPERATING MANUAL COMMAND SUMMARY
4/91 A-85 210
The XBAUD command supports data rates from 1 to 9600 bits per second although the PK-232 in-
ternal modem only supports data rates to 1200 baud.
XFlow ON|OFF Default: ON
Mode: All Host: XW
Parameters: ON - XON/XOFF (software) flow control is activated.
OFF - XON/XOFF flow control is disabled - hardware flow control is enabled.
When XFLOW is ON, software flow control is in effect - it's assumed that the computer or terminal
will respond to the PK-232's Start and Stop characters defined by the XON and XOFF commands.
Similarly, the PK-232 will respond to the computer’s start and stop characters defined by START
and STOP.
When XFLOW is OFF, the PK-232 sends hardware flow control commands via the CTS and is con-
trolled via either the RTS or the DTR line.
Xmit Immediate Command
Mode: Baudot/ASCII/Morse and FAX Host: XM
XMIT is an immediate command that keys your radio's PTT line and prepares the radio to receive
outbound data and Morse characters from the PK-232. The XMIT Command can only be used from
the Command Mode.
XMIT switches your PK-232 to either Converse Mode or Transparent Mode, depending on the set-
ting of CONMODE. Typing the CWID or the RECEIVE character will return you to receive. Typing
RCVE from the Command mode will also return to receive.
XMITok ON|OFF Default: ON
Mode: All Host: XO
Parameters: ON - Transmit functions (PTT line) are active.
OFF - Transmit functions (PTT line) are disabled.
When XMITOK is OFF, the PTT line to your transmitter is disabled - the transmit function is inhib-
ited. All other PK-232 functions remain the same. Your PK-232 generates and sends packets as re-
quested, but does not key the radio's PTT line.
Use the XMITOK command at any time to ensure that your PK-232 does not transmit. Turning XMI-
TOK OFF can help enable full break-in CW (QSK) on certain transceivers.
XOFF "n" Default:$131 <CTRL-S>
Mode: All Host: XF
Parameters: "n" - 0 to $7F (0 to 127 decimal) specifies an ASCII character code.
Use XOFF to select the Stop character to be used to stop input from the computer or terminal.
The Stop character default value is <CTRL-S> for computer data transfers.
