(Instruction &

Qualifier)

Response to Query

Rx Data Rate N/A

10 bytes

Query only.

Returns Rx Data Rate,in Kbps, in the form xxxxxx.xxx

Example: RDR=002047.999 (In Kbps)

N/A

RDR?

RDR=xxxxxx.xxx

(see Description of
Arguments)

Rx Spectrum

Invert

N/A

1 byte, value

of 0 or 1

Query only.

Returns Rx Spectrum Invert in the form x, where:
0 = Normal

1 = Rx Spectrum Inverted

Example: RSI=0 (selects Normal)

N/A

RSI?

RSI=x

(see Description of
Arguments)

Rx Alpha
Rolloff

N/A

1 byte, value
of 0 thru 2

Query only.
Returns Rx Alpha Rolloff in the form x, where:
0 = 20%

1 = 25%
2 = 35%


Example: RAR=0 (reports Rx Alpha Rolloff of 20%)

N/A

RAR?

RAR=x

Rx Gold Code

Sequence
Index

RGS=

6 bytes

Command or Query.

Set or return Rx Gold Code Sequence Index in the form xxxxxx, where:
Gold Code Sequence index = 000000 to 262141


Example: RGS=189063

RGS=

RGS?
RGS*

RGS#

RGS?

RGS=xxxxxx

Rx Pilot

N/A

1 byte, value
of 0 or 1

Query only.
Returns Rx Pilot status in the form x, where:

0 = Off
1 = On


Example: RPI=0 (selects Pilots Off)


NOTE: This is automatically detected on demod acquisition, but if the unit is not locked, the query returns ‘x’.

N/A

RPI?

RPI=x

Es/No Alarm
Point

EBA=

4 bytes

Command or Query.
Set or return Es/No alarm point in dB, Resolution=0.1 dB, in the form xx.x, where:

xx.x = range between 0.1 and 25 dB.

Example: EBA=12.3

EBA=
EBA?

EBA*
EBA#

EBA?

EBA=xx.x
(see Description of

Arguments)

Minimum Data
Rate

(MultiStream
Mode)

N/A

10 bytes

Query only.
Applies to MultiStream Mode. Returns the minimum data rate of the modem, in the form xxxxxx.xxx.


In MultiStream mode, the minimum data rate calc is EDR + MDR = TDR where:
MDR = (PIIC1 + PIIC2) * 1.015 for Normal Frames

MDR = (PIIC1 + PIIC2) * 1.05 for Short Frames
In non-MultiStream mode (Ethernet Only): MDR = TDR

In non-MultiStream mode (Assume PIIC 1 G703-E3): MDR = TDR

N/A

MDR?

MDR=xxxxxx.xxx
