Local/Remote

State

LRS=

1 byte

Command or Query.

Sets or returns Local or Remote state for Indoor SSPA (always in remote mode for Outdoor SSPA) in the form x,

where x=0, 1, 2, or 3::

0 = Local

1=Serial

2=Ethernet

3=Serial+Ethernet (default value)

Note: The user will always have query access in any mode. The LRS command is also available in all modes as

a means of acquiring control. The intent of this command is to limit changes from being made on multiple

interfaces at the same time. Units without a front panel will treat an entry of 0 as reserved, and will refuse the

command by returning a mode error. The web page GUI will refuse connections unless LRS is set to enable

Ethernet remote control.

Example: <1/LRS=3’cr’

>0001/LRS=’cr’’lf’
