These options are to control (and therefore are only applicable to) the high cluster character display. (While this documentation only covers BMBT usage, I suspect they would apply to MID.)

and 0x04
define the boundaries for the substring which is written to by the command 0x24
.
For example, here the radio is writing to both GT 0x3b
and IKE 0x80
via the broadcast address 0xff
.
68 19 FF 23 40 30 07 2D 41 34 2D 20 08 46 4D 20 03 20 39 32 2E 37 04 20 53 54 BE
# String: "\x07-A4- \x08FM \x03 92.7\x04 ST"
In this message the property substring is 03 20 39 32 2E 37 04
which encapsulates the radio frequency, in this case " 92.7"
.
Once defined, the radio can then update this property via 0x24
, thus mitigating the need to write the entire display again.
68 0A FF 24 40 00 20 39 36 2E 30 C8 # " 96.0"
68 0A FF 24 40 00 20 39 36 2E 31 C9 # " 96.1"
68 0A FF 24 40 00 20 39 36 2E 32 CA # " 96.2"
Notice the string in each of the three above messages is five characters, the same length as the substring in the original message.
0x07
and 0x08
define the boundaries for the substring which is discarded by GT 0x3b
or MID 0xc0
.
Using the same message as above in which the radio is writing to both GT 0x3b
and IKE 0x80
:
68 19 FF 23 40 30 07 2D 41 34 2D 20 08 46 4D 20 03 20 39 32 2E 37 04 20 53 54 BE
# "\x07-A4- \x08FM \x03 92.7\x04 ST"
The substring to discard in this message is 07 2D 41 34 2D 20 08
which encapsulates the radio preset, in this case "-A4- "
.
The radio preset is only displayed on the cluster, thus the need to discard it.
These use cases became obsolete with the introduction of NG radios. In order to support the split screen display mode introduced with the updated UI (3/1-40+, 4/1), all NG radios used the digital radio mode irrespective of source.
