D - DTMF
. This command allows the user to view received DTMF digits
on the computer terminal. DTMF digits are generated by pressing the numeric
keypad on a radio handset. Each numeric character on the keypad creates a
specific tone.
After entering “V” then “D” the Vosponder will reply with Bye! It is now in a
listening mode and will echo back to the PC terminal any DTMF keys that it
receives from a radio handset. Press the radio handset’s “Push-to-talk” key and
enter any pattern of numbers from the keypad. You will see each number that
you press appear on the computer terminal screen. In the example screen
below the user has pressed each of the numeric keys 9-1 on the handset. To
exit from this mode, press any key on the computer keyboard.
This mode is useful for testing the communication link between the handset
and the Vosponder, and to make sure that DTMF entries on the handset are
correctly received by the remote site.
