Arguments for
Command or
Query
1 byte Command or Query.
numeric Sets or returns switching of the bias tee into the through state or into the off state, in the form x, where:
0=Off State (mute LNB) (DEFAULT)
1=Through State (unmute LNB)
NOTES:
1) The bias tee provides a means of muting the LNB. The SBT state will be controlled by the amplifier mute state
while running in redundancy mode, but while the unit is not in redundancy mode the bias tee may be set
independently of the amplifier mute state.
2) To send this command the unit must have the bias tee option installed; otherwise, a mode error will result. A
mode error will also result if this command is sent while the unit is running in redundancy mode.
COMMAND EXAMPLE: <0001/SBT=1{CR}
2 bytes, Command or Query.
numeric Sets or returns the FSK Address in the form xx, where:
xx=Address value from 01 (DEFAULT) to 15.
COMMAND EXAMPLE: <0001/SFA=01{CR}
1 byte Query only.
Returns the summary fault state in the form x, where:
0=Not Faulted (SumFLT_COM J6 pin K is not connected to SumFLT_NC J6 pin M)
1=Faulted (SumFLT_COM J6 pin K is connected to SumFLT_NC J6 pin M)
EXAMPLE: <0001/SFS?{CR}
>0001/SFS=0{CR}{LF}
1 byte Command or Query.
Sets or returns the SNMP Authentication Trap in the form x, where:
0=Disabled
1=Enabled
COMMAND EXAMPLE: <0001/SNA=0{CR}
1 byte Command or Query.
Sets or returns SNMP in the form x, where:
0=Disabled
1=Enabled
COMMAND EXAMPLE: <0001/SNM=0{CR}
9 bytes Query only.
Returns the unit's nine-digit serial number in the form xxxxxxxxx.
NOTE: This query is functionally identical to RSN.
EXAMPLE: <0001/SNO?{CR}
>0001/SNO=012345678{CR}{LF}
4 bytes Command or Query.
Sets or returns the Physical Address in the form xxxx where:
xxxx=Address value from 0001 (DEFAULT) to 9999.
COMMAND EXAMPLE: <0001/SPA=0412{CR}
