APRS Software for Your PC 04

Fig. 4-4 KISS Setup Window of UI‑View 32

6 Click the “OK” button in the Comms Setup window to close the Comms Setup window.

• UI‑View32 sends a command to TM‑D710’s built‑in TNC that is changed to the KISS mode.

• During the process, “STA” and “CON” on the TM‑D710’s display blink simultaneously 6 times.

• Starting from this point, APRS communications starts followed by the configuration for UI-View32.

• The configurations associated with APRS for the TM-D710A/E (in Menus 600 to 612) or for the TM-D710GA/GE (in Menus

600 to 613) have no influence to this operation.

• For details of other configurations for UI-Vew32, refer to the descriptions in the help file and other reference materials.

7 Save the newly created initialization file as TM-710.CMD in the CMD folder under UI-View32. You can then select

“TM‑710” as the TNC type in the Comms Setup screen of UI‑View32 and start operating.

Note:

◆ Even if you select “TH‑D7” or “TM‑D700” for TNC type in the Comms Setup window of UI‑Vew32, you cannot expect proper

operation due to incompatibility of PC commands. Ensure that the transceiver is placed in KISS mode as described above.

◆ The built‑in TNC has 4 kB memory to store data for KISS mode for TX and RX.

◆ We do not recommend you select “D700” for Easy Setup in the KISS Setup window of UI‑View32 due to the incompatibility of

PC commands. As explained above, select “TNC2” for TM‑D710.

◆ When changing the PACKET transfer rate of the built‑in TNC from 1200 bps (default) to 9600 bps, modify the Into KISS

section of Comms Setup window as follows: (Add the “HB 9600” command.)
1: ^M
2: HB 9600
3: KISS ON
4: RESTART
TM-D700.CMD initialization file cannot be used for TM-D710 due to the incompatibility of the PC commands. Modify the

TM-D700.CMD file using a text editor as above and save it as TM-D710.CMD.
