Response to Query
(target to controller)
Active
Demods
ACD= 8
bytes,
numerical
Command or Query.
Sets or queries the active state of all 8 Traffic Demods:
0 = de-activate Traffic Demod
1 = activate Traffic Demod
Note: only active units will be monitored by the switch.
Use ACM if in Dependent mode.
ACD=
ACD?
ACD*
ACD#
ACD? ACD=xxxxxxxx
(see description of arguments)
Bridge/Backup
Modulator
BBM= 2
bytes,
numerical
Command or Query.
Sets or queries the bridged/backup state for Mods:
x = 0/1 indicating bridged/backup of Modulator
y = 1-8, the number of Mod that the Redundant Mod is
tracking.
Note: requires TMIs to be present, & mods to be active
(see ACM).
BBM=
BBM?
BBM*
BBM#
BBM? BBM=xy
(see description of arguments)
Bridge/Backup
Demodulator
BBD= 2
bytes,
numerical
Command or Query.
Sets or queries the bridged/backup state for Demods:
x = 0/1 indicating bridged/backup of Demodulator
y = 1-8, the number of Demod that the Redundant
Demod is tracking.
Note: requires TMIs to be present, & demods to be
active (see ACD).
Use BBM if in Dependent mode.

Active Mod
Query
n.a. 8
bytes,
numerical
Query only.
Returns the state of all 8 Traffic Mods, which is usually
as set by ACM, but possibly overruled by Switch
conditions, where x is:
0 = TMI not present (cannot be activated)
1 = TMI present but Mod/Modem not activated
2 = TMI present, Mod activated and responding
3 = TMI present, Mod activated but NOT responding
n.a. AMQ?
AMQ=xxxxxxxxy
(see description of arguments)
y indicates the Redundant unit/RMI state, similarly, but activation is
assumed.
Active Demod
Query
n.a. 8
bytes,
numerical
Query only.
Returns the state of all 8 Traffic Demods, which is
usually as set by ACD, but possibly overruled by Switch
conditions, where x is:
0 = TMI not present (cannot be activated)
1 = TMI present but Demod not activated
2 = TMI present, Demod activated and responding
3 = TMI present, Demod activated but NOT responding
Use AMQ if in Dependent mode.
n.a.. ADQ?
ADQ=xxxxxxxxy
(see description of arguments)
y indicates the Redundant unit/RMI state, similarly, but activation is
assumed.
