an easy way to see if the data format and setup information is correct.
Radio ST Buffer Byte Count
The data in the main buffer will be transferred to the radio buffer at the end of the last scan
before the next scheduled transmission. This status screen normally shows a 0 byte count
except after the scan just before the transmission. One minute after the transmission is sent
this value will go back to 0 indicating the data has been sent.
Bytes Used and Bytes Available
This status screen indicates how many bytes are used and how many bytes are available for the
current settings. If too much data is defined to be transmitted then the byte count will be
greater than the bytes available. In this case the user will have to make choices on how to cut
back on the amount of data being transmitted.
Est. Tx Time
This is an estimated time needed for the transmission based on the current settings. Amount
of data to be sent, baud rate, headers turned on and off, etc all can affect the transmission time.
This time must be less than the defined transmit window size.
V - View ST Buffer
This option allows the user to view the main ST buffer at any time. See the section above
‘Main ST Buffer Byte Count’ for more details.
R - View RR Buffer
This option allows the user to view the random buffer at any time.
F - Force Random Tx
Pressing the F key will allow the user to test the random transmission setup by forcing a
random transmission. The data sent will be the data defined by the user under the random
transmission setup options.
3.8 S - Scan Options
The following shows the “Scan Options” screen. All functions of the H-5223 are based around the
scanning process.
