2 bytes Command or Query.
This command allows the user to set the alarm window
in ± % of the calibrated LNB Current. Valid inputs are 20
to 50 in increments of 1%. In addition, setting the value
to 99 disables the alarm function (see Note).
Note: A return value of 99 indicates that the current
window is disabled. This may be because a value of 99
was set for LCW, or it may be because the CWE has
been disabled. Since the method of setting 99 to this
command will become obsolete, it is recommended the
user utilize CWE instead of 99.
The following example will set the alarm window to
±30%:
Example: <1/LCW=30'cr'
>0001/LCW='cr''lf'
Default Value: 30
5 bytes Command or Query.
This command allows the user to set the threshold for
the low forward power alarm/fault. If the forward power
drops below the specified value, the alarm/fault will be
indicated. Setting this parameter to 00.00 effectively
disables the threshold
Example: <1/LPT=00.00'cr'
>0001LPT='cr''lf'
Default Value: 00.00
1 byte Command or Query.
Set Local or Remote for Indoor SSPA. Always in
remote mode for Outdoor SSPA
0 = Local, 1=Serial, 2=Ethernet, 3=Serial+Ethernet
Example: <1/LRS=3'cr'
>0001/LRS='cr''lf'
Note: The user will always have query access in any
mode. Also, the LRS command is available in all
modes as a means of acquiring control. The intent of
this command is to limit changes from being made on
multiple interfaces at the same time. Units without a
front panel will treat an entry of 0 as reserved, and will
refuse the command by returning a mode error. The
web page GUI will refuse connections unless LRS is
set to enable Ethernet remote control.
Default Value: 3 (Serial+Ethernet)
