Unread Stored
Alarms*
Returns the five oldest stored events in the alarm log, in the reply format:
YYYYYYYYYY ZZ mmddyy hhmmss{CR}
YYYYYYYYYY ZZ mmddyy hhmmss{CR}
YYYYYYYYYY ZZ mmddyy hhmmss{CR}
YYYYYYYYYY ZZ mmddyy hhmmss{CR}
YYYYYYYYYY ZZ mmddyy hhmmss{CR}{LF}
Where:
YYYYYYYYYY is the fault description.
ZZ is the event type FT=Fault; OK=Clear; or IF=Information
mmddyy hhmmss=date / time stamp.
NOTE: If there are no events in the log the unit will reply with LNA*. All events that
are read from the log are also automatically removed from the log.

Forward
Threshold
Sets or returns the threshold for the low forward power alarm/fault in the form
xx.xx:
Default value: 00.00
NOTES:
1) If the forward power drops below the specified value, the alarm/fault will be
indicated.
2) Setting this parameter to 00.00 effectively disables the threshold.
