Rx BER N/A 5 bytes Query only.
Unit returns the value of the estimated corrected BER in the form
a.b x 10
-c . First three bytes are the value. Last two bytes are the
exponent. Returns 99999 if the demodulator is unlocked.
Example: BER=4.8E3 (which is BER = 4.8 x 10
-3 )
N/A BER? BER=a.bEc
(see description
of arguments)
Redundancy
State N/A 1 byte, value
of 0 or 1 Query only.
Unit returns the redundancy state of the unit, where
0=Offline
1=Online

of 0 or 1 Command or Query.
Control the state of front panel lockout, where:
0=no lockout
1=front panel lockout active
