Time TIM=
6
bytes,
numerical
Command or Query.
Format is hhmmss, using a 24 hour clock, where
hh = hours, between 00 and 23,
mm = minutes, between 00 and 59, and
ss = seconds, between 00 and 59
Example: TIM=231259 represents the time 23:12:59.

Config Store
CST=
1 byte,
numerical,
0-9
Command or Query.
Forces the unit to store the current modem configuration
in Configuration Memory location defined by the one
byte argument (0 - 9).
Example CST=4 (Store current config into location 4)
WARNING: Use with care! If the location already
contains data, it will be automatically overwritten. If
in doubt, query the location using CST?x.
CST=
CST?
CST#
CST?x
where x
is 0-9
CST=xxxxx…
where xxxx… is the same format as SGC, or
CST* if no config is stored
Config Load
CLD=
1 byte,
numerical,
0-9
Command only.
Forces the switch to retrieve the Configuration Memory
location defined by the one byte argument (0 to 9). and
to re-program the switch with that stored configuration.
WARNING: Use with care! Current configuration
settings will be overwritten. If in doubt, query the
contents of the location using CST?x.

bytes,
numerical
Query only.
Unit returns the current fault and status codes for the
switch itself, where each location in the string is either 0
for no fault or 1 for faulted, and the positions are:
Leftmost 1 = Mod remote comm problem
(use AMQ for detail)
2 = Demod remote comm problem
(use ADQ for detail)

5/6 = +5V PSU-B under/over
7/8 = +12V PSU-A under/over
9/10 = +12V PSU-B under/over
11/12 = -12V PSU-A under/over
Rightmost 13/14 = -12V PSU-B under/over
