Query
(Instruction Code
and Qualifier)
Response to
Query
External
Reference
Frequency
ERF=
1 byte,
value of 0 thru 5
Command or Query.
Sets or returns External Reference Frequency in the form x, where:
0 = Internal
1 = External 1 MHz
2 = External 2 MHz
3 = External 5 MHz
4 = External 10 MHz
5 = Internal 10MHz plus output (the Reference is available on the “Ext Ref” rear
connector (small rear-panel LED indicates when ON))
Example: <0/ERF=0 (External reference not used – uses internal)
ERF=
ERF?
ERF *
ERF #
ERF?
ERF = x

Arguments)
Internal 10MHz
Reference
Adjustment
ADJ=
4 bytes,
numeric
Command or Query.
Sets or returns fine adjustment of the modem Internal 10MHz Reference in the
form sddd, where:
s = sign (+ or –), and
ddd = value from 000 to 999
ADJ=
ADJ?
ADJ*
ADJ#
ADJ?
ADJ=sddd
(see Description of
Arguments)
Warm-up Delay
WUD=
1 byte,
value 0 or 1
Command or Query.
Sets or returns Warm-up Delay for internal frequency reference (OCXO)
in the form
x, where:
0 = Disabled (instant on – no delay for OCXO to reach temperature)
1 = Enabled (unit waits until OCXO reaches correct temperature)
Example: <0/WUD=1 (selects Warm-up Delay)
WUD=
WUD?
WUD*
WUD#
WUD?
WUD=x
(see Description of
Arguments)
Countdown
CTD=
3 bytes
Command or Query.
As a command, only takes the argument 000. Truncates the Warm-up delay
period to zero and forces the unit into ‘instant-on’ mode. For example, CTD=000
terminates the warm-up delay.
As a query, returns the Warm-up Delay countdown, in seconds remaining. Range
is from 000 to 200 seconds.
Example: <0/CTD?
>0/CTD=067 (means the unit will wait another 67 seconds before it
enters its operational state)
