Forced Transmission

To test the connection, a forced transmission of a user-defined message
can be made as follows:

1.

Store the message string to be sent into the static parameter
goes_usertx_msg with the spset command.

2.

Store the time at which the message is to be sent into the static
parameter goes_usertx_time, in seconds since midnight. If this
parameter is not set, the transmission will be made 30 seconds after
issuing the DO command.

To unset the parameter, use the command: spclear
goes_usertx_time

3.

Activate the message with the command DO <name> usertx. The
message will not be sent until this command has been given.

As an example, the following command sequence will send the string
"Test transmission" at 08:00 (28800 seconds since midnight).

/ > spset goes_usertx_msg "Test transmission"

/ > spset goes_usertx_time 28800

/ > DO GOES_1 usertx
