Configuration
Status
N/A 45 bytes
Query only.
Used to Query the configuration status of the unit
Examples:
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=N/A’cr’’lf’ (see Note)
Where:
ATT= attenuation in dB
AMP= RF power amplifier state, 0=OFF, 1=ON
MUT=RF mute state, 0=un-muted, 1=muted
RED=Online status for redundancy
ESW=Redundancy state and mode,
states: 0=OFF, 1=ON Tx only, 2=ON Tx & Rx
AOF=Attenuator Offset in dB
AFR= auto fault recovery, 0=manual, 1=auto
XRF = External reference status, N/A = no external
reference, 05M for 5 MHz, and 10M for a 10 MHz
Note: XRF will always be N/A if the internal reference
oscillator option is not installed.
RCS= RCS?
RCS=x….x
(See Description
of Arguments for
details)
Online Status
RED= 1 byte Command or Query.
Online status (applies only to redundancy), where:
0 = Offline
1 = Online
Note: this command is functionally identical to the ONL
command.
Example: <1/RED=1’cr’
>0001/RED=’cr’’lf’
RED=
RED?
RED*
RED? RED=x
