Description of Arguments
Query only.
Interface Type in the form sx, where:
s=Defines which interface slot (1 or 2)
x=Defines the interface type, where:
0=ASI
1=Gigabit Ethernet
2=HSSI
Example: ITF?1
Query only.
Unit returns the value of the Link Margin. Returns 00.0 if demod is unlocked.
Example: LNK=12.3
Command or Query.
Local/Remote status in the form x, where:
0=Local
1=Serial
2=Reserved
3=Ethernet
4=Serial+Ethernet
Example: LRS=1 (Serial Remote selected)
Query only.
MAC address of the unit, reported in hexadecimal.
Example: MAC=0006B000D2A7 (The MAC address of the unit is
00:06:B0:00:D2:A7 )
Command or Query.
Alarm mask conditions, in the form ab, where:
a=Tx AIS (0 = Alarm, 1 =Fault, 2 = Masked)
b=Spare
Example: MSK = 00
Query only.
Unit returns the Number of Unread Events, which remain stored, in the form xxx.
Note: This means unread over the remote control.
Example: NUE=126
Query only.
Units returns the value of the estimated PER in the form a.bEscc, representing
-c
ab x 10
. First three bytes are the value; last two bytes are the exponent.
Returns 0.0E+00 if the demodulator is unlocked.
Example: PER=4.8E-03 (PER is 4.8 x 10
Command or Query.
Rx Alpha Rolloff in the form x, where:
0 = 20%
1 = 25%
2 = 35%
Example: RAR=0 (Rx Alpha Rolloff of 20% selected)
-3
