Returns the configuration status of the unit.
EXAMPLES:
<0001/RCS?{CR}
ATT=12.75{CR}
AMP=1{CR}
MUT=1{CR}
ONL=1{CR}
ESW=1{CR}
AOF=00.00{CR}
AFR=1{CR}
XRF=NA{CR}{LF} (SEE NOTE)
Where:
ATT= attenuation in dB
AMP= RF power amplifier state where 0=OFF, 1=ON
MUT=RF mute state where 0=unmuted, 1=muted
RED=Online status for redundancy
ESW=Redundancy and mode states where 0=OFF, 1=ON Tx only, 2=ON Tx & Rx
AOF=Attenuator Offset in dB
AFR= auto fault recovery where 0=manual, 1=auto
XRF=External reference status where NA=no external reference, 05M=5 MHz,
and 10M=10 MHz
NOTE: XRF will always be NA if the internal reference oscillator option is not
installed.

Command or Query.
Sets or returns Redundancy Online status in the form x, where:
0=Offline
