SCFE n, name This setting command is used for saving the conversion factor (made by SCFW).
The command is made of the string:
This command is intended for creating a conversion factor into PMMER8000. For
further information see command SCFW..
When the command is received the conversion factor is checked and, if data
(frequency and level) are coherent, the command is granted by replying SCFW =OK
otherwise the replay is SCFW =SERR
Example: #SCFE 0,Probe* checks the data previously loaded by SCFW commands,
names it as "Probe" and activates it.
This setting command is used for creating a conversion factor frequency by
SCFW n,freq;lev
frequency. It consists of three fields as follows:
• n is the index of frequency being written and it should range from 0 to 499
• freq is the frequency, expressed in Hz (exponential notation allowed), being
• lev is the conversion factor and is expressed in dB
The procedure to creating a conversion factor on PMMER8000 is the following:
• Send as many commands as the frequency points of limit are in upwards order.
• Terminate (and make it active) by sending the command SFCE
Here is an example how to make a custom correction factor on PMMER8000:
• #SCFW 0, 150e3; -1 * Send the first line 150kHz -1 dB
• # SCFW 1, 500e3; 0 * Send the second line 500kHz 0 dB
• # SCFW 2, 5e6; 1.2 * Send the third line 5MHz +1.2 dB
• # SCFW 3, 50e6; 1.1 * Send the fourth line 50MHz +1.1 dB
• # SCFW 4, 300e6; 1 * Send the fifth line 300MHz +1 dB
• #SCFE 0,Probe* Save it permanently as #0 into ER8000 and name it as
Note that all the higher indexes in the conversion factor are cleared. Therefore, a
conversion factor must be made upwards otherwise all points, having a higher index
previously written, are cleared.
It is responsibility of the user to make sure the data sent are correct and coherent.
The reply is SCFW =OK which acknowledges the command has been granted or
LCFW =SERR if the command has been ignored.
This setting command switches the Demodulator; according the parameter (a) which
SDMD
can be AM, FM or OFF.
The reply is DMD =OK which acknowledges the command has been granted or DMD
=SERR if the command has been ignored.
Example: # DMD FM*
Example: # DMD OFF*
