Advanced Operations
Simple ASCII Manager Interface
The HMX extender system features a Simple ASCII Manger Interface (SAMI) that allows you to
have limited control over your HMX transmitters and user stations via an ASCII-based protocol
delivered via TCP. The password protected SAMI is enabled over the serial port on your HMX
extender system and operates in Extender Mode only. The SAMI supports the following
commands:
set - The set command will be used to set a parameter to a specified value.
get - The get command will be used to retrieve the value of a parameter.
use - The use command will be used to perform an action which does not change the value of a
parameter. For example, to initiate a session, the user must send the password with the use
command (“use password sessionpassword”).
resp - The resp command will be used to respond to a request from the client.
error - The user station will respond with the error command when an invalid message is
received. The format of the error response is “error command parameter failure.” If a specific
error can be identified, the user station will return that error.
The following table describes the parameters that can be utilized through the SAMI.
