The CWID-1 Repeater/Beacon Controller is a small (5cm x 4cm) yet
powerful microprocessor controlled unit suitable for use either
as a Repeater or a Beacon controller. All functions of the controller
are set up using a special programming box (CWID-PROG) and a PC
running a Windows programme. The unit is supplied pre-programmed
to the customers requirements.
When used in the Repeater mode the CWID-1 can transmit an ident
of up to 48 characters at a speed of between 5 and 30 wpm. The time
between idents can be programmed to be from 10 seconds to 30 minutes
in 10 second increments and the ident can be programmed to be suppressed
when the repeater is idle. An anti-kerchunk timer is built into
the software as is a time out timer and a hold (tail) timer. A courtesy
tone (Roger Beep) is available as an option.
When used in the Beacon mode the CWID-1 can transmit an ident
of up to 48 characters at a speed of between 5 and 30 wpm and can
be programmed to give a continuous tone/carrier between idents if
required.
