Response to
Query
Redundancy
State
N/A 1 bytes, 0 or 1 Query only.
Returns the redundancy state of the unit in the form x, where:
0 = Offline
1 = Online
Example: <0/RED?
>0/RED=1 (selects Online)
N/A RED? RED=x
(See Description of
Arguments)
Temperature N/A 3 bytes Query only.
Returns the unit internal temperature, in degrees C, in the form sxx, where:
s = sign (+ or –)
xx = value
Example: <0/TMP?
>0/TMP=+26
N/A TMP? TMP=sxx
(see Description of
Arguments)
Offline Unit
Status
N/A 6 bytes Query only. (1:1 set-up)
Sent to the online modem of a 1:1 pair. Returns the fault status information (FLT?)
of the offline modem in the form abcdef, where:
abcdef = The FLT? response information from the offline unit
Note: This is the only way to interrogate the status of an offline modem at the
distant-end of a link.
