Setup walkthrough

  1. 1

    Confirm %% capture

    ASCII must start with %% — not >id, TR900.

  2. 2

    Aim host at TCP 5018

    Save APN server hostname/IP and port 5018; reboot.

  3. 3

    Send A-validity data

    A with NS/EW coords proves the path.

  4. 4

    Pings are OK

    %% ping lines keep the session without coordinates.
