G.2.6 Enable Transmissions

Syntax:

ETX

Access level: USER
TX312 State: Disabled

This command enables transmissions. The configuration parameters will be
checked for validity. If valid, they are saved to non-volatile memory and the
transmitter is enabled. The enabled/disabled state of the transmitter is also
stored in non-volatile memory so that it will resume operation after a power
cycle if it was previously enabled.

Note that the factory default configuration is not valid. The factory default
parameters must be explicitly overwritten with valid values before
transmissions can be enabled.

G.2.7 Disable Transmissions

Syntax:

DTX

Access level: USER
TX312 State: Enabled

This command disables transmissions. Normal scheduling of transmissions is
suspended.

Note that the transmitter is automatically disabled if configuration parameters
are modified and must be re-enabled with the ETX command to resume
transmitting.

G.2.8 Read Configuration

Syntax:

RCFG

Access level: USER
TX312 State: Enabled/Disabled

This command lists all of the configuration parameters. Each parameter is in
the same format as if its individual command had been executed.

For Example:
RCFG
NESID=326d31d4
TCH=92
.
.
.

The output from the RCFG command can be captured by the host (in a text
file) and used to duplicate the configuration in another unit.
