Terminal Commands

There are three commands which can be sent when the Bird Antenna
Monitor is connected to a terminal.

“T”

The “T” command will cause the unit to echo a single measurement.
The format is:

nnn.n,nn.nnXX

That is, three digits of forward power, a decimal point, a fourth digit of
forward power, a comma, followed by two digits of reverse power, a
decimal point, and two digits of reverse power.

The first character following will be “A” if an alarm has been triggered
until the alarm is reset, and will be blank if there is no alarm. The sec-
ond character will be “0” if “Alarm on Zero Power” is disabled, and “1”
if “Alarm on Zero Power” is enabled.

“C”

The “C” command will cause the unit to echo measurements repeat-
edly. The format is identical to the “T” command. The “C” command
can be interrupted at any time by sending the “T” command.

“A”

The “A” command will reset the alarm. If an alarm condition is still
present, the alarm will turn back on after being reset.
