Valid attenuation level (00.00 to 20.00), in dB, in 0.25
dB steps as factory default.
Example: <1/ATT=12.25'cr'
>0001/ATT='cr''lf'
Default Value: 00.00
5 bytes Command or Query.
Valid attenuation level (00.00 to 20.00), in dB, in 0.25
dB steps as factory default. This value is not copied to
the offline unit in a redundant system, but will be
added to the attenuation value upon a switchover. This
provides a unit specific fine-tune to maintain power
levels appropriately in a redundant system.
Example: <1/AOF=12.25'cr'
>0001/AOF='cr''lf'
Default Value: 00.00
1 byte Command or Query.
The LPOD output will automatically be muted in the
event of detected fault. If auto fault recovery is
enabled, it will cause the output return to its pre-fault
mute condition if all faults are cleared. If disabled, the
output will remain muted even if all faults are cleared.
Example: <1/AFR=1'cr'
>0001/AFR='cr''lf'
Default Value: 1
