Note that key-on-data mode is only applicable when the input data

source is digital. When the input data source is analog, the

DATAKEY set-

ting is irrelevant.

Event Log Date

Format

DATE [mmm dd yyyy]

This command sets or displays the date. The accuracy of the date and

time are important, because event codes are “stamped” with the date and

time.(See also “TIME [hh:mm:ss]” on Page 54.)

Enter the command without any parameters to display the date. Enter the

command in any of the following formats to reset the date:

DATE mmm dd yyyy

DATE mm-dd-yyyy

DATE mm/dd/yyyy

where mmm is a three-character abbreviation of the month:

Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec

dd is a two-digit number from 01 to 31 representing the day, and yyyy is

the year.

Dekey Transmitter DKEY

This command deactivates the transmitter after it has been keyed with

the

KEY command. (If other keying sources are still active, then the

transmitter will not dekey, but the manual key request is removed.)

Diagnostics Link DLINK [ON/OFF/xxxx]

This command disables or re-enables network-wide diagnostics at the

local radio, and sets the baud rate at the radio's RJ-11 DIAG port. Net-

work-wide diagnostics is enabled by default.

Entering

DLINK ON enables network-wide diagnostics. Entering DLINK

OFF

disables network-wide diagnostics.

Use the

DLINK command locally, at the radio, to enable network-wide

diagnostics functionality as well as set the baud rate at the RJ-11 DIAG

port.

DLINK followed by the baud rate sets the baud rate (bps) of the RJ-11

DIAG port. The following baud rates selections are allowed:

• 1200

• 2400
