A.7.1.21 Application Identification
The Application Identification (AID) command allows a free form message to be created. It is
intended to identify either the satellite, transponder, beam, destination or other aspects of the
application that may be significant to operations.
The message length corresponds to capability of the LCD and is 48 characters in total. The
second line begins at character 25, therefore, blanks must be used after line 1 information in order
to space to line 2. A carriage return ends the command. Trailing blanks will be generated to fill
the LCD field. The AID display will alternate with the Equipment type display by use of the
clear function key on the front panel. The default is "AID MESSAGE".
