Kantronics KPC-9612 Comments
- TLMEcho encounters a GPF on exit. May need to manually take the KPC out of KISS mode.
- To take the KPC out of KISS mode send a byte string 0xC0, 0xFF, 0xC0 to the TNC.

DSP-2232 Comments
- Select Modem 18 for Radio Port 1, Modem 28 for Radio Port 2.
- Select TNC type as TAPR in CPBINI.txt.
- Select KISS INIT and KISS OFF as Y, but see below.
- The current version of TLMECHO will place the unit into KISS mode correctly. It will not take it out of KISS mode on exit, and gives a program error message. No harm done, however.
- To place the DSP-2232 in KISS mode manually, enter KISS ON. To remove it from KISS mode, start your favorite terminal program. Wait a few seconds, then three CTRL-Cs in quick succession. It should return to the command prompt.
- Since I use the DSP-2232 only for 9600 baud, I just leave it in KISS mode with the KISS commands commented out in the configuration file.

- In TlmEcho you must have init n and manually place the tnc into kiss mode (kiss on) otherwise, it sends the command reset which resets the tnc to its total default configuration.
