The network address mask. Default is F000. This means this unit will
receive all transmissions from any other unit with an ID beginning with
0 (0001 thru 0999).
KEYPHRASE
Enter a security key code. Use any word or phrase 1-16 characters
long. It is case-sensitive. DO NOT FORGET WHAT YOU SET IT TO!
The KEYPHRASE is the only parameter that cannot be read out of the
M7 GX. It must be the same as the
KEYPHRASE
programmed into
all the other
M7 GX
transponders in your system. The factory default
KEYPHRASE
is
RAVEON
, call capitols.

To see an overview of how the modem is configured, use the
SHOW

Type the
ATSV
command to permanently save the new modem
parameters into FLASH memory.
Remember, that from the factory, all
M7
GX modems are configured to
simply work. Plug in power and connect to the serial port at 4800 baud,
and the modems will communicate on the default channel. Change the
channel frequency to your specific frequency, and they will be ready to
work on your channel.
7.1. Enabling Repeater Features
Refer to the technical manual for advanced repeater configuration
instructions. To quickly enable repeating of all data sent from/to units 1-
999, use the
REPEAT 1
command. This will enable the repeater
function, and configure it to repeat messages, position, and status
transmissions.
Set the Transmission Report rate
Use the
TXRATE xx
command to set the report rate, in seconds, for the
M7 GX
transponder. For example, if you wish the M7 to report every 5
minutes, set the report rate to 300 seconds (
TXRATE 300
).
If the
M7 GX
should report position and status when it is moving, set the
TXRATE xx
to the desired time between position transmissions. Then,
program the
IDLERATE xx
to the desired number of seconds between
reports when the unit is not moving (idle).
Important!:
Set the minimum distance the unit must move for a
transmission occur with the
TRIGDX xx
command. If
TRIGDX
is set to
zero, then the unit will always report at the interval set with the
TXRATE
xx
command.
For example, to transmit every 2 minutes when idle, and every 10
seconds when moving more than 500 meters, use these commands:
IDLERATE 120
(
to set the idling update interval to 2 minutes.)
TRIGDX 500
(tells it to report at the IDLERATE if it does not move this
many meters)
