26 bytes Query only.
Used to query the configuration status of the unit. This
is the concise version of the RCS command.
Example:
CCS=aa.aa;b;c;d;e;ff.ff;g;hhh; 'cr''lf'
Where:
aa.aa = attenuation in dB (ATT)
b = RF power amplifier state, 0 = Off, 1 = On (AMP)
c = mute state, 0 = un-muted, 1 = muted (MUT)
d = online status (ONL)
e = redundancy state and mode (ESW)
ff.ff = Attenuator offset in dB (AOF)
g = auto fault recovery mode (AFR)
hhh = External reference status, N/A = no external
reference, 05M for 5 MHz, and 10M for a 10 MHz (See
Note)
Note: hhh will always be N/A if the internal reference
oscillator option is not installed.

48 bytes Command or Query.
CID is a user-defined string of data that may be used
to identify or name the unit or station. The CID is a 48-
byte field of data that is entered as one line, but it will
be read back from the unit as two 24-byte lines of data.
Examples:
<1/CID= Station #001--SSPA #01--'cr'
>0001/CID=
<1/CID?'cr'
>0001/CID='cr'
Station #001'cr'
--SSPA #01--'cr''lf'
