• System printer LaserJet 5L,PRINTER
This is only used with a Printer Agent, and uses the printer specified. Note that Windows
printers do not give the fine granularity of control normally expected from a GD-92 system;
better to use a printer attached via an RPI
• A Device Name of EMULATE can also be used to emulate a printer or UPIP device. The
printer emulation swallows data at a rate of several hundred characters per second; the UPIP
emulation provides enough UPIP responses to make most simple UPIP based agents appear
to function
Note that UPI and UFI devices are installed as COM ports on the system; the COM port numbers for
these tend to be sequentially assigned, but can be changed to more memorable values (normally
COM10 upwards) using Device Manager in the Control Panel. These devices ignore any baud rate
settings.
Default UPI/UFI settings are:
• COM10 Console Agent (UFI)
• COM11 Peripheral Agent 1 (UPI)
• COM12 Peripheral Agent 2 (UPI)
• COM13 Peripheral Agent 3 (UPI)
• COM14 Alerter_2 Agent (UPI)
6.35 Alerter Directory and Formats
The Alerter Directory provides basic lookup and formatting for calls sent via the alerter. This can have
up to 65535 entries, but would normally only be used for team and specific calls as the Paging agent
would normally be used for call translation.
Only calls that match entries in the alerter directory will be processed, though a wildcard entry can be
included.
Each alerter has its own alerter directory.
Each entry has four fields:
• User
The User can be any sensible alphanumeric combination, e.g. 1234, Fred, TA Any matches
are case insensitive
• Address
This contains the numeric pager address. For Pocsag systems, this is a number between 8
and 2097151. For Mk7, this is 0 to 9999, however, group pages are supported using the
formats 123*, 12**, 1*** and **** for deca, hecto, kilo and all call groups. The address is
ignored for a wildcard entry.
• Format
This field of the directory allows a variety of different page formats. Multiple format codes may
be specified.
• 1..4 Pocsag Function Codes
