A.3 Configuration Commands/Responses
A.3.1 Modulator
Modulator
Frequency
Command:
Response:
Status:
Response:
RF_OFF'cr''lf']
Where: nnn.nnnn = Frequency in MHz, 50.0000 to 180.0000,
in 2.5 kHz steps.
Note: When the modulator frequency is programmed, the RF
output is switched off.
RF Output

Status:
Response:
Where: xxx = ON or OFF.
Modulator
Rate Preset

Command:
Response
Status:
Response:
Where:
x = A, B, C, D, or V (Preset designator).
nnnn = 1/2, 3/4, 7/8, or BP12 (Coder rate).
mmm.mmm = Data rate in kHz.
Notes:
1. When ADPCM Interface is selected, only 32.000 and
64.000 are allowed.
2. When the Async Interface is used. If the ASYNC
baud rate is higher than allowable for the new data
rate, the maximum baud rate will be selected
automatically.

Response:
Where: snn.n = +49.9 to -49.9, in 0.1 dB increments.
Note: The modulator power offset is added to the nominal
power level to adjust the transmit power range.
