Response:
Where: snn.n = -30.0 to –5.0, in 0.1 steps (nominal range in
dBm).
Notes:
1. The nominal power range is modified relative to the
value specified by the modulator power offset
(MPO_).
2. The MOP_ command will return status only when
local AUPC is enabled.
3. High power option range is –20 to + 5 dBm.
