5.8.1.10 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".
