MFJ-1278B MULTI-MODE OPERATIONAL COMMANDS

NO200 ON/OFF

Mode: Pactor Default: OFF


Parameters:

ON

Inhibits 200 baud operation in Pactor mode.


OFF

Allows 200 baud operation in Pactor mode.


The NO200 command controls whether 200 baud links are to be discouraged. The TNC
accomplishes this in two ways:

1. Speedups are inhibited.

2. Incoming connect requests are acknowledged for 100 baud.

The NO200 command works most effectively when both units are capable of NO200
operation. Regardless of the setting of NO200, the TNC complies. This ensures connectivity
with non-MFJ units.


NODEFORW node

Mode: Mailbox Default " "


Parameters:

node [via x...], up to 8 vias.


NODEFORW is an immediate command. It is similar to the FORWARD command except
that the NODEFORW parameter is the callsign+via path to your NETROM, THENET, or
KA node. When your TNC establishes the connection to the 'node', it sends the text in
NODEPATH to establish a network link to the receiving BBS.

If all goes well, the forwardee will send its sign-on string, and forwarding will commence. To
detect failure, NODEFORW looks for two strings - "BUSY" and "RETR" - as node
connection failure indications. Upon finding "BUSY" or "RETR", the forward attempt is
considered failed, and the TNC disconnects from the node. The command can contain the
callsign of the "node" and up to 8 vias.
