c: Call Up a Stored Form and Set the Automatic Transmit Buffer Length  
Note: 
Expanded functions are case-sensitive. 
Expanded Function c is a non-form message that calls up a stored form and sets the automatic 
transmit buffer length in the same transmission. 
Rule:  This function must be followed with two extra characters:  Automatic 
transmit buffer length character and a form identifier character. The form 
identifier character is a printable character of the ASCII subset. The form 
identifier follows the automatic transmit buffer length character. 
Rule:  Do not use Expanded Function c to call up a form that has a number 
symbol # as the third text character. This type of form has an automatic 
transmit buffer length as an integral part of the form. The automatic 
transmit buffer length assigned with the number symbol overrides the 
buffer length that you are trying to assign with Expanded Function c. 
What Happens 
This function copies the identified form from the stored form file into the form buffer and then 
into the DOS terminal’s compose buffer. Expanded Function c also sets the automatic transmit 
buffer length. See “Automatic Transmit Buffer Length” in Appendix C, “Code Tables and 
Character Sets”, for hex values of the buffer length characters. 
The form remains in the form buffer until the host computer or DOS terminal operator replaces or 
deletes the form. See Expanded Function K for more information on stored forms. 
Application 
You can use Expanded Function c when you wish to assign a buffer length to a stored form that 
does not already have a buffer length associated with it. By using a stored form rather than 
sending the whole form from the host computer, it reduces the amount of traffic on the RF 
channel.
