MFJ-1278B MULTI-MODE OPERATIONAL COMMANDS
RETries nnn: 0<=nn<=255 Mode: Pactor Default: 80
Parameters:
nnn; specifying the number of times a packet is transmitted before disconnect
The number of error cycles that the MFJ-1278B will tolerate before unilaterally terminating
the link. (Also see WAITDISC)
RETRY n Mode: Packet Default: 10
Parameter:
n 0 - 15, specifying the maximum number of packet retries.
The protocol allows for retries, i.e., retransmission of frames that are not acknowledged.
Frames are re-transmitted n times before the operation is aborted. The time between retries is
specified by the command FRACK. A value of 0 for n specifies an infinite number of retries.
If the number of retries is exceeded, the MFJ-1278B goes to the disconnected state (with an
informative message if not in Transparent Mode). See also the FRACK command.
REVFLIM call[-n] Mode: Mailbox Default: " "
Parameters:
Call Callsign of BBS to enable Reverse-forwards
-n 0 - 15, an optionally specified sub-station ID (SSID).
When this parameter is empty, the mailbox reverse forwards all of its messages eligible for
forwarding to the first SID compatible BBS to elicit a reverse forward with "F>." Since this
permissive technique is vulnerable to a malevolent operator who might attempt to connect
and force your mailbox to forward to him, the REVFLIM parameter is provided to limit your
mailbox's response to other's reverse forward requests. Simply place the callsign of the BBS
you wish to enable reverse forwarding to in this parameter to limit remotely-initiated reverse
forwarding to only that callsign.
