048: Start Beacon Using English Words

This command allows you to start a beacon from the serial port that will speak the message you

specify using English words. It automatically programs macro 409 (and possibly 410) to speak the

message you specify (see command 066 for more details) and starts beaconing using the beacon

table slot you specify (which should be set up ahead of time to call macro 409). This command is

most useful for alerting you of errors that occur in another system that can output a serial error

message and execute this command. Any word that is not in the controller's voice library (see

Appendix B) will be spelled out.

<048> SS Error_message_in_English_words

Parameters:

048 is the default command name.

SS is the beacon slot number to use (often is 01)

Error_message_in_English_words is the message to be spoken, with the words separated by

underscore digits.

Example:

048 01 This_is_a_test_error_message
