Remote Baud
Rate
SBR= 4 bytes Command or Query.
Set remote baud rate as follows:
2400 = 2400 baud
4800 = 4800 baud
9600 = 9600 baud
19K2 = 19200 baud
38K4 = 38400 baud
Examples: <1/SBR=9600’cr’
>0001/SBR=9600’cr’’lf’
<1/SBR?’cr’
>0001/SBR=09600’cr’’lf’
Note: When changing baud rates remotely the
response to the command will be returned using the
same baud rate as that used to send the command.
Default Value: 9600

Switch Bias Tee SBT= 1 byte
numeric
Command or Query.
Switches the bias tee into the through state, or into the
off state. The bias tee provides a means of muting the
LNB. The SBT state will be controlled by the amplifier
mute state while running in redundant mode, but while
the unit is not in redundant mode the bias tee may be
set independently of the amplifier mute state.
0 = Off State (mute LNB)
1 = Through State (unmute LNB)
Example: <1/SBT=1
Note: To send this command the unit must have the
bias tee option installed otherwise a mode error will
result. A mode error will also result if this command is
sent while the unit is running in redundant mode.
Default Value: 0
SBT=

Set FSK Address SFA= 2 bytes,
nuberic
Command or Query.
Set FSK Address-between 01 to 15.
Example: <1/SFA=01’cr’
>0001/SFA=’cr’’lf’
Default Value: 01
