106 Part F: Configuring Channels MB8100-00-00-806 © TEL 2003The Automatic CWID system area lets you enable and configure the regularsending of identity broadcasts. The Morse area defines what the base stationbroadcasts.Automatic CWIDsystemEnables the automatic sending of a base station identifier. Currently the onlyoption is to use Morse code.Transmission IntervalIn the Add or Edit Channel Profile dialog box, CWID System tab, theTransmission interval area lets you specify when the station ID is transmitted.Transmit every Specifies the interval in minutes between one identity broadcast and the next.Wait until Tx tailbefore CWIDtransmissionDetermines what happens if the base station is transmitting when a CWID burstis due.If the check box is selected, the base station delays the CWID burst until thetransmit tail. Any tail timers start to count down immediately after the CWIDburst.If the check box is cleared, the station ID is transmitted as soon as thetransmission interval after the previous transmission has elapsed. This mayinterrupt speech or signalling. Any other modulating signal is temporarilysuppressed to prevent interference with the Morse code.Tip: Use the Task Manager action Transmit CWID now to set upidentity broadcasts in ways that the Transmission interval area doesnot permit.MorseIn the Add or Edit Channel Profile dialog box, CWID System tab, the Morsearea lets you specify a unique ID for the base station. The speed of transmissionand the tone used can also be configured, but you should not need to alter thedefault settings.Words per minute Specifies the speed of Morse code transmission. The 5-letter word PARIS isused to establish the number of words per minute. This word corresponds to50 dots.Tone frequency The frequency of the tone used to transmit the Morse code.Message Enter into this box up to 30 characters to be transmitted as the station ID. Youcan enter any character or digit that the international morse code alphabetsupports (A-Z, 0-9, and punctuation marks). These characters will betransmitted using the International Morse Code convention. You can also enterspaces. They result in a silence equivalent in duration to seven dots.Task ManagerIn the Add or Edit Channel Profile dialog box, the Task Manager tab opens aTask Manager form and displays the tasks that apply to the selected channelprofile. Use it to edit or add Task Manager inputs and actions that apply to thechannel profile.
