Response to Query
(Target to
Controller)
Sets or returns the alarm window in ±% of the calibrated LNB Current in the form xx, where:
xx=20 to 50, in increments of 1(%)
99 disables the alarm function (see Note)
Default value: 30
Note: When queried, a return value of 99 indicates that the current window is disabled. This method is due to
become obsolete. Use of the CWE command/query is recommended instead of specifying 99 here.
Example (sets the alarm window to ±30%): <1/LCW=30’cr’
(See Description of
Arguments)
Returns the five oldest stored events in the alarm log. 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.

YYYYYYYYYY ZZ mmddyy hhmmss’cr’
YYYYYYYYYY ZZ mmddyy hhmmss’cr’
YYYYYYYYYY ZZ mmddyy hhmmss’cr’
YYYYYYYYYY ZZ mmddyy hhmmss’cr’’lf’
Where:
YYYYYYYYYY = fault description.
ZZ = one of the following event types:
FT = Fault
OK = Clear
IF = Information
mmddyy hhmmss = date / time stamp.

Sets or returns the threshold for the low forward power alarm/fault in the form xx.xx.
If the forward power drops below the specified value, the alarm/fault will be indicated. Setting this parameter to
the default value of 00.00 effectively disables the threshold
