Thus there is now a selection check box of "Insert TODz" which will upon sending the message
insert the TOD in Zulu time. This selection and "Add TODz" can both be active at the same time
and work with all available means of sending a message.
“Add TODz” - When "Add TOD" is checked, the Zulu time shall be appended to the outgoing
message sent.
“Upper Case” - When checked any text typed or pasted, either manually or when using the
“Grab Last” feature will be converted to upper case. Any existing text prior for all but “Grad
Last” will remain in lower case.
“View File” - When checked, any file selected using the “Send File” button or the Drag & Drop
method (see Appendix B for details) will be displayed in the Outgoing Message window for
reviewed or editing prior to sending.
“x1” - When checked, the Drag & Drop method for Displaying or Sending files is limited to one
file and the one on which the mouse cursor is on regardless of how many files were selected.
Keyboarding Message Window
For Peer-to-Peer rapid keyboarding vs. formal message traffic, this window supports the sending
of up to a 1024 (1Kb) ASCII character message on the ENTER key stroke. At 600bps or greater
this makes for fast turnaround keyboarding interface capability. This window is not grayed out
during TX as are other sending features are as seen below, this allows typing ahead with the
next message to send as soon as the tool returns to receive.
The pasting of data is also supported, however whatever is pasted is limited to 1024 characters
and will terminate on any embedded carriage returns or line feeds. All entered or pasted text is
always converted to Upper Case.
There is no LINE WRAP taking place, thus long lines will not wrap on the RX end. When the 1Kb
limit has been reached with an entered message prior to sending, a message box warning will
display, at which point hitting enter will allow sending what has been entered, or the message
can be trimmed down to convey all of the information with edited wording. The same rules
when pasting apply as to legitimate ASCII character range of 32-132.
