SGC=
21 bytes,
numerical
Command or Query.
Global configuration of switch, in the form:
OaaaaaaaaaaBNNbbrrMSAssssssss where:
O = Operating Mode - same as OPM= (1 bytes)
a = Active Modems - same as ACT= (10 bytes)
B = Bridge/Backup State – same as 1 half of BBU= (1
byte)
N = Selected TM Number - same as 2 half of BBU= (2
bytes)
b = Backup Holdoff Time – same as BKH= (2 byte)
r = Restore Holdoff Time – same as RSH= (2 byte)
M = Modem Alarm Mask – same as MAM= (1 byte)
S = Switch Alarm Mask – same as SAM= (1 byte)
A = Audio Alarm Mask - same as AAM= (1 bytes)
s = 8 spare bytes

Config Store
CST=
1 byte,
numerical, 0 to 9
Command only.
Forces the unit to store the current modem configuration in
Configuration Memory location defined by the one byte
argument (0 to 9).
Example CST=4 (Store current config in location 4)
WARNING: Use with caution! If the location already
contains data it will be automatically overwritten. If in
doubt, query the location first.
CST= (message ok)
CST? (received ok, but
invalid arguments found)
CST? n,
where n is 0 to 9
Return the same
format as the MGC
with The form:
CST= for a valid
config, and CST*
where no valid
config is found
Config Load
CLD=
1 byte,numerical,
0 to 9
Command only.
Forces the switch to retrieve the Configuration Memory

body{CR}Sub-body, where Sub-body =
A being the fault/clear indicator, where:
F = Fault, C = Clear, I = Info
B being the fault type, where:
C = Switch Fault/Clear,
1,2,....A,B = Modem Fault/Clear (B = RM)
D = Power on/off, or log cleared (Info events)
