57020114-00E
Description
You must enter a valid command for pulsing
frequency and duty cycle to enable pulsing.
Any combination of pulsing frequency and
duty cycle that results in an output on time of
less than 225 μs is invalid and returns a CSR
error code.
For Slave Units
If the unit is a slave unit, this command sets
the minimum pulse on time the unit accepts
without asserting an error. The unit uses this
frequency with an implied duty cycle of 50%
to calculate the minimum pulse on time. The
default minimum on time is 250 μs.
Send 4 data bytes.
• Bytes 0 through 3 = Pulsing frequency in
Hz
Command 193 reports this value.
Controls the diagnostic self-test. The unit
must be in diagnostic control mode before
using this command (see command 14).
Sending a value of 0 disables the self-test and
clears the self-test results from the previous
run (if any). Sending a value of 1 clears the
self-test results from the previous run (if any)
and starts the diagnostic self-test.
Send 1 byte.
• Byte 0 = Enable/disable diagnostics.
◦ 0 = Disable diagnostics mode
◦ 1 = Enable diagnostic mode and start
diagnostics
Command 244 reports this value.
Sets the RF pulsing duty cycle in percentage.
The unit can store this value in one of two
storage locations:
• Volatile memory
• Nonvolatile memory
