MFJ-1278B MULTI-MODE OPERATIONAL COMMANDS

DAYUSA ON/OFF

Mode: Packet Default: ON


Parameters:

ON

Date is displayed in the format mm/dd/yy.


OFF

Date is displayed in the format dd-mm-yy.


This command determines the format for the MFJ-1278B's display of the date. If DAYUSA
is ON, the standard U.S. format is used; if DAYUSA is OFF, the standard European format
is used. This command affects the format of the date display used in "time stamps" as well as
the display when DAYTIME is entered without parameters. The format for entering the time
using DAYTIME is not affected.

For example, if DAYUSA is ON, then July 2, 1984 at 9:28:44 AM would be displayed as

cmd: DAYTIME
07/02/84 9:28:44


If DAYUSA is OFF the same date and time would appear as

cmd: DAYTIME
02-07-84 9:28:44

Disconnect

Mode: Pactor Immediate Command

command is what operators normally used to terminate a Pactor link.


DISplay

Mode: Pactor Immediate Command


The DISPLAY command will display all PACTOR commands and their settings. This is the
