Attenuation
ATT=
5 bytes
Command or Query.
Sets or returns attenuation level in the form xx.xx, where:
xx.xx=00.00 to 20.00, in dB, in 0.25 dB steps as factory default.
Default value: 10.00
Example: <1/ATT=12.25’cr’

Auxiliary Mute
Enable
AUX=
1 byte
Command or Query.
Sets or returns the auxiliary mute mode in the form x, where:
0=Disabled (default value)
1=Enabled
Notes:
1. When enabled, the mute control input on the remote com connector must be grounded to UN-MUTE the unit.
Otherwise, the unit will be muted, and if a mute query is given (MUT?) the response will be MUT=2 to indicate
a hardware controlled mute is present.
2. Aux mute is one of several hardware mute states that can cause a MUT=2 to be reported. See the MUT
command for more info on mute states.
3. Auxiliary mute supersedes the user mute state so if the command MUT=1 is sent, then AUX=1 is sent, and the
user shorts Pin K to Pin S on the discrete control connector then the RF mute will be disabled (MUT=0).
