Qualifier) Response to Query
Reboot RBT= 1 byte
Retrieve N/A variable length, alpha
Configuration numerical
Status
Online Status N/A 1 byte,

Equipment Type alphanumerical
Description of Arguments
(Note that all arguments are ASCII numeric codes, i.e., ASCII codes between 48 and 57)
Command only.
Soft Reboot
1 = Reboot System
Example: RBT=1
Query only.
Used to Query the configuration status of the unit.
Example: RCS='cr'
ATT=10.00
AMP=1
MUT=0
RED=1
ESW=0
AFR=1
XRF=N/A
NOTES:
1. XRF = External reference status, where:
N/A = no external reference
05M = 5 MHz
10M = 10 MHz
XRF will always be N/A if the internal reference oscillator option is not installed.
2. If a parameter it is not applicable, it will display x. Example: ESW=x
Query only.
Online status (applies only to redundancy), where:
0 = Offline
1 = Online
Example: <0001/RED?'cr'
>0001/RED=1'cr''lf'
Command or Query.
Ref Osc Adjust, between 000 and 255.
Resolution 001. (Optional installation)
Example: REF=087
Note: REF cannot be adjusted when the unit is locked to an external reference source.
Query only.
The unit returns a string indicated the Model Number and the value of internal software revision
installed.
Example: RET=KPA100-4045-I REF BUC VER: 1.03
C–13
