Note: ◆ When the built-in data band is set to cross band, the Voice Alert function does not operate. ◆ Voice alert takes precedence even when TONE, CTCSS and DCS are set. ◆ When Voice alert is ON, you cannot perform TONE or CTCSS frequency selection and DCS code selection. ◆ When the packet speed is 9600 bps, the TONE will disrupt the demodulation of the packet. Set the packet speed to 1200 bps when using Voice Alert. WEATHER STATION DATA OUTPUT Enter Menu mode and access Menu 615. ■ Transmit This setting determines whether or not to transmit the meteorological data obtained from the Weather Station, with the APRS data communication. ■ Transmit Interval Time Set the interval at which the meteorological data is transmitted with the APRS data communication. The interval can be set to 5, 10, 30, or 60 minutes. • The following meteorological data is transmitted: • Rainfall • Air temperature • Wind direction • Wind velocity • Atmospheric pressure • Humidity • This data is transmitted with the APRS standard format (latitude/ longitude and time information). • You can verify the meteorological data being output by viewing MY WEATHER STATION. (Press [F], [WXi]) SETTING AS A DIGIPEATER ■ DIGIPEAT Enter Menu mode and access Menu 616. When using the TM-D710G as a digipeater, set whether or not you digipeat a packet which includes your callsign in the packet path. In the received packet path, if you have set your callsign in MY CALLSIGN (Menu No. 600), the digipeat completion flag ( ) is added to your callsign and will then process the relay. (For example, "JA1YKX-1" > "JA1YKX-1 ".) ■ UICHECK Enter Menu mode and access Menu 617. This function will not relay a one-time received UI frame within the set UICHECK time. This is effective for each of UIDIGI, UIFOOD, and UITRACE. UI frame (Unnumbered Information frame) Data can be transferred and the APRS beacon, etc., can be used without making a connection. UIDIGI, UIFLOOD, and UITRACE are all specialized UI frame relay processing modes. ■ UIDIGI Enter Menu mode and access Menu 618. When using the TM-D710G as a digipeater, set whether or not UI digipeat is run. When receiving a UI frame that matches your entered character string alias (RELAY, WIDE 1-1, etc.) of the beginning part of the packet path that has not yet been digipeated, the digipeat completion flag ( ) is added to your callsign (the callsign you set up in MY CALLSIGN) and the relay will begin processing. (For example "WIDE 1-1" > "JA1YKX-1 ", etc.) 1 Rotate the Tuning control to switch the function ON, then press the Tuning control. 2 Rotate the Tuning control to select "ALIASES", then press the Tuning control. • The display for entering a path appears; the first digit blinks. • You can enter 0 to 9, A to Z, , (comma), and -.
