WAVECOM Decoder W74PC, W-PCI/e, W-CODE, W-CLOUD Manual V8.7.0
The decoder output is divided in signaling information (call signs with SSIDs, package-identifier and AX.25
control word) and data. It is possible to represent the data as ITA5-US and HEX.
Further description to the signaling information can be found in the AX.25 Link Access Protocol for Ama-
teur Packet Radio.
The package-identifier specifies the used layer 3 protocol.
In the following table, all possible package identifiers are given:
Package-Identifier PID
Hexadecimal

Additional Info
16 Bit redundancy
RUM-FEC operates at symbol rates of 164.5 and 218.3 Bd on the radio link.
The HNG-FEC and RUM-FEC modes are technically very similar. RUM-FEC alphabet has a codeword length
of 16 bits where each of the 32 used bit combinations corresponds to an ITA-2 character.
