Parameter (Instruction
Type Code and
Qualifier)
Tx Power Level TPL= 4 bytes
Tx Carrier State TXO= 1 byte,
value 0 thru 9
Tx Alpha TXA= 1 byte, value 0
thru 5
Power Level AUP= 1 byte,
Mode value of 0, 1, 2
Command or
Response to
Query
Command or Query.
Sets or returns Tx Output power level in the form xx.x, where:
For CDM/R-570AL – 0 to –40 dBm (minus sign assumed).
For CDM-570A – 0 to –25 dBm (minus sign assumed).
Example: <0/TPL=13.4
Notes:
1) In AUPC mode, command is not valid. Response= TPL*.
2) When APC is active, Response = TPL=99.9
Command or Query.
Sets or returns Tx Carrier State in the form xx.x, where:
0 = OFF due to front panel or remote command
1 = ON
2 = RTI (receive/transmit inhibit)
3 = OFF due to ext H/W Tx Carrier Off command (not a valid argument when used as
a command)
4 = OFF due to BUC warm up delay (not a valid argument in a command format.)
6 = RTI (receive/transmit inhibit), timeout = 1 second
7 = RTI (receive/transmit inhibit), timeout = 2 seconds
8 = RTI (receive/transmit inhibit), timeout = 4 seconds
9 = RTI (receive/transmit inhibit), timeout = 7 seconds
Example: <0/TXO=1 (Tx Carrier ON)
Command or Query.
Valid only in CDM-570A Compatible Mode (CMO=1).
Sets or returns Tx Filter Rolloff Factor in the form x, where:
0 = 0.35
1= 0.25
2= 0.20
3 = 0.15
4 = 0.10
5 = 0.05
Example: <0/TXA=0 (Tx filter rolloff factor is 0.35)
Command or Query.
Sets or returns Power level mode in the form x, where:
0 = MANUAL mode (Normal power mode)
1 = AUPC enabled.
2 = CnC APC enabled
Notes:
1. EDMAC framing and/or IP-ACM must be selected for the AUPC feature to work.
2. CnC APC will be forced to enable when CnC is in APC mode (CNM=2 ..9)
Example: <0/AUP=1
