A.10 Store Current Channel Settings (S, P1: 1, P1: 8)
This command stores the current settings for the Frequency and Gain into the channel table for the
currently selected channel. The command is as follows:
@01/STORE<cr>
If successful, the converter will return the following string:
<cr><lf>
Channel: cc {cc = current channel number, 01 to 30}
Frequency: ffff.fff {ffff.fff = frequency in MHz}
Gain: sgg.g {s = ± and gg.g = gain in dB}
Stored Faults: {None/Signal Fault/LO Fault/LO Fault, Signal Fault}
Reference: {Internal/External}
<cr><lf>
<cr><lf> {End of transmission}
A.11 RF On/Off Command (Upconverter Only) (All)
These commands control the converter’s output. The commands are as follows:
@01/RFON<cr>
@01/RFOFF<cr>
Note: If the converter is faulted, any attempt to turn on the RF without first clearing the fault
will fail.
If successful, the converter will return the following string:
For backup converter:
Backup RF: {Off/On}
Stored Faults: {None/Signal Fault/LO Fault/LO Fault, Signal Fault}
<cr><lf>
<cr><lf> {End of transmission}
For Single or Primary Converter:
RF: {Off/On}
Stored Faults: {None/Signal Fault/LO Fault/LO Fault, Signal Fault}
<cr><lf>
<cr><lf> {End of transmission}
A.12 Change Input Attenuation Command (Upconverter Only)(S, P1: 1, P1:
8)
This command alters the converter-input attenuation. The commands are as follows:
@01/SETATTNaa<cr>
Where aa is the input attenuation (00 - 30)
