Rx Data Rate RDR= 10 bytes Command or Query.
Rx Data rate, in kbps, in the form xxxxxx.xxx.
Resolution = 1 bps.
Example: RDR = 002047.999 (selects 2047.999 kbps)
N/A RDR? RDR=xxxxxx.xxx
(see Description
of Arguments)
Rx BERT BER N/A 6 bytes Query only.
Unit returns the value of the BERT BER in the form a.b x 10
-c
, where:
First three bytes are the value;
Last two bytes are the exponent.
Returns 0.0E00 if the BERT is not synchronized to a pattern.
Example: BBR = 4.9E12
N/A BBR? BBR=a.bEcc
