D – DTMF

. This is the DTMF code that the Vosponder responds to. The

DTMF code can be from 1 to 5 digits and can be any combination of valid
DTMF digits 0 – 9,* and #. Characters are not echoed on the PC terminal until
an <ENTER> key is pressed. It is recommended that DTMF codes be kept to 2
or 3 digits. Longer DTMF codes can be more susceptible to a user
inadvertently hitting an invalid key and thus having to re-key the DTMF code
over and over until it is exactly correct.

In the example screen below the user has entered the DTMF code 123 and the
pressed <ENTER>. The user can now cause the Vosponder to send a voice
message by pressing the numbers 1 2 3 on the radio hand sets keypad.

Enter DTMF Code

S – SDI-12 Address

. This is the SDI-12 bus device address. This can

be any valid SDI-12 address 0 – 9. The Vosponder comes with a default
SDI-12 address of “0”. See Appendix A for more information about the
SDI-12 protocol.
