Unit returns the oldest 5 Stored Statistics (including newly added Minimum and Average Receive Signal level),

which have not yet been read over the remote control in the reply form [CR]sub-body[CR]sub-body[CR]

sub-body[CR]sub-body[CR]sub-body, where sub-body = AA.ABB.BC.CD.DEE.E,FF.Fddmmyyhhmmss:

AA.A=Minimum Eb/No during sample period.

BB.B=Average Eb/No during sample period.

C.C=Max. Tx Power Level Increase during sample period.

D.D=Average Tx Power Level Increase during sample period.

EE.E=Negative value of Minimum Receive Signal Level in dB during sample period.

FF.F=Negative value of Average Receive Signal Level in dB during sample period.

ddmmyy = date stamp.

hhmmss = time stamp.

If there are no new events, the unit replies with RNN*. If there are less than 5 statistics to be retrieved, the

remaining positions are padded with zeros.

Note: RNN includes all information provided in RNS, plus Rx Signal level. Do not mix use of RNS and

RNN.

FSW=

None

Command only.

Forces unit to toggle Unit Fail relay to “fail” state for approx 500ms. If unit is part of a 1:1 pair and is currently

the ‘Online’ unit, this will force a switchover, so unit will then be in ‘Standby’ mode. The command is always

executed by the unit, regardless of whether it is standalone, in a 1:1 pair, or part of a 1:N system.
Note: This command takes no arguments.

Command or Query.

Enables or disables communications, via the FSK link, with a Comtech EF Data transceiver (ODU) in the
