NETBEEP

Syntax: NETBEEP delay, pulses
Location: FLEXYNET (DIY Toolkit - Vol Y)

This command allows you to send signals through the QL's network ports - this can even create rudimentary sounds.

The first parameter tells the command the length of the delay between pulses sent to the Network port.

The second parameter tells the command the number of pulses to send to the port - each pulse will send an electrical signal through the network port.

You can also use this command (in conjunction with NETPOLL on other computers in the Network to test the speed settings for Flexynet) - simply send a series of bytes over the Flexynet (using NETBEEP) and check that they have been received correctly at the other end by using NETPOLL.  If the bytes are incorrect, you may need to increase the delay.

CROSS-REFERENCE:
See NETPOLL which allows you to read signals sent through the network ports.
NETRATE allows you to alter the speed of the Flexynet and NETREAD / NETSEND can be used to read and send multiple bytes.
