Description
Returns 4 data bytes:
• Bytes 0 through 3 = Tuning criteria
Set this value with command 58.
Reports the time in ms from an RF on
(command 2) to the first time that the tuning
algorithm declares the generator to be tuned.
Returns 4 data bytes:
• Bytes 0 through 3 = Time in ms
Reports the time in ms that the tuning
algorithm waits before beginning to
automatically tune the generator. The
maximum tune delay value is 60,000 ms. The
unit stores this parameter in nonvolatile
memory.
Returns 4 data bytes:
• Bytes 0 through 3 = Time in ms
Set this value with command 60.
Reports the output frequency when the
generator is operating in fixed frequency
mode. The fixed frequency value must be
within the unit frequency range. With some
units, you can also use this command to report
the maximum and minimum fixed frequencies
for the unit.
For units that allow you to set the fixed
frequency memory mode (see command 118;
B0 = 51), the fixed frequency parameter can
be set to either volatile or nonvolatile.
Send 0 data bytes to return frequency in kHz,
or send 1 data byte to return frequency in kHz
or Hz or maximum/minimum frequency
settings.
Send 0 data bytes:
• Returns 4 data bytes = Frequency in kHz
