All commands generate a response of one or more lines, which indicate successful completion of the command or an
error.
After a command's response, the transmitter displays the mode name followed by the character ">" as a prompt,
which may be interpreted as meaning the radio is ready to accept new characters. If the CP07 option is enabled, only
the character ">" displays as a prompt.
*SV Note: Users may save internal clock and data in presets for bench debug use, BUT
on a power up or when a hardware preset is restored, CS will be forced to 0 (external
clock and data). This action prevents a transmitter from powering up or changing
hardware presets and being set to internal clock and/or data. The ONLY way to restore
CS as 1 from a saved configuration is by executing the RC command or by having the -ID
option available on the unit.

Additional Command Set Details
Automatic Carrier Output – AC
4.2.3.1.1
This command requires the AC or ACS option. These options allows the TIMTER to transmit a carrier wave when
the clock input is absent, which would normally cause the RF output to be turned off.
If the AC option is present, the AC command is always enabled (1) even if a preset is saved with AC = 0.
If the ACS option is present, the saved setting of the AC command (preset 0) is used on power up instead of forcing
AC = 1.
AC always applies to both channels simultaneously. If AC is enabled while in Channel 1 or Channel 2, it will
always be enabled in both channels, but the active channel number is not changed.
Also refer to Appendix C – Understanding Clock/Data, AC, D2, and BR.
Baseband Clock – BBCK
4.2.3.1.2
The BBCK command displays the actual current baseband clock rate and source.
If Clock Free (CF command) is enabled, and the bit rate (BR command) is fixed at 5.5 Mbps:
3>BBCK
BB clock rate chan 1 = 5.465334 Mbps, src = CF Man C1 (Man indicates the bit rate was set manually)
BB clock rate chan 2 = 5.464573 Mbps, src = CF Man C2
