Command or Query.
Sets or returns the global status of the SSPA/BUC, semicolon delimited, in the form
aa.aa;b;ccccc;d;e;f;g;h;j;k;l;m;n;o where:
a = Redundancy mode (NOT USED)
b = Online status (NOT USED)
cc.cc = Attenuation Offset (NOT USED)
dd.dd = Customer Attenuation(ATT)
e = Auto Fault Recovery (AFR)
fffff = Unit Alarm Mask (MSK)
g = LNB Current Source (NOT USED)
hh = LNB Current Window (NOT USED)
i = LNB Current Window Enable (NOT USED)
j = Enable Statistics Averaging (ESA)
k = Set Statistics Interval (SSI)
l = Enable Statistics Logging (NOT USED)
m = Auxiliary Mute (NOT USED)
n = user mute state (MUT)
o = RF power amplifier state (AMP)

Resets internal pointer to allow RNE? queries to start at the beginning of the stored events log. This command
takes no arguments.
EXAMPLE: <0001/IEP={CR}
1 byte
Command or Query.
Sets or returns the Current Active Software Image in the form x, where:
1 = Bulk Image # 1 currently active
2 = Bulk Image # 2 currently active
COMMAND EXAMPLE: <0001/IMG=1{CR} (instructs the unit to load firmware from image #1 at the next reset /
power up).
QUERY EXAMPLE: <0001/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, while the query reports the image that
the firmware booted from on the previous bootup.
