43 bytes Command or Query.
Used to set up and query the global status of the
BUC/SSPA with a semicolon delimited string of data.
Example (set GAC):
GAC=a;b;cc.cc;dd.dd;e;fffff;g;hh;I;j;k;l;m;n;o;'cr'
Where:
a = redundancy mode (ESW)
b = online status (ONL)
cc.cc = Attenuation Offset (AOF)
dd.dd = Customer Attenuation(ATT)
e = Auto Fault Recovery (AFR)
fffff = Unit Alarm Mask (MSK)
g = LNB Current Source (LCS)
hh = LNB Current Window (LCW)
i = LNB Current Window Enable (CWE)
j = Enable Statistics Averaging (ESA)
k = Set Statistics Interval (SSI)
l = Enable Statistics Logging (ESL)
m = Auxiliary Mute (AUX)
n = user mute state (MUT)
o = RF power amplifier state (AMP)
None Command only.
Resets internal pointer to allow RNE? Queries to start
at the beginning of the stored events log.
Example: <1/IEP='cr'
>0001/IEP='cr'lf
1 byte Command or Query.
Current Active software image, where:
1=Bulk Image # 1 currently active
2=Bulk Image # 2 currently active
Examples:
<1/IMG=1'cr' (instructs the unit to load firmware from
image #1 at the next reset / power up).
<1/IMG?'cr' (queries the image number that the
firmware loaded during bootup)
Note: if you send the IMG command, and then query
the IMG value the numbers may not be equal because
the command tells the firmware which image to boot
from at the next bootup, and the query reports the image
that the firmware booted from on the last bootup.
