cr''lf']
Where: tttttttt = Equipment type.
xxx.yyy.zzz = Software version.
Equipment type specifies the unit and current firmware
versions.
Firmware
Information Command:
Response:
<1/FI_'cr'
>1/FI_'cr'
VER_xxx.yyy.zzz'cr'
MC_FW/nnnnnn-ddr'cr'
MC_mm/dd/yy'cr'
FPGA_FW/nnnnnn-ddr'cr'
FPGA_mm/dd/yy'cr'
DSP_FW/nnnnnn-ddr'cr'
DSP_mm/dd/yy'cr''lf']
Where:
xxx.yyy.zzz = Software version number (0.0.0 to
999.999.999).
nnnnnn = Firmware number (0 to 999999).
dd = Firmware dash number (0 to 99).
r = Firmware revision (-, or A to Z).
Raw BER
Status Command:
Response:
<1/RBER_'cr'
>1/RBER_xm.mE-ee'cr''lf'] Where:
x = < or > (data modifier to indicate that the E
b
/N
0
is less
than or greater than the returned value).
m.m = 1.0 to 9.9 (error rate mantissa).
ee = 1 to 99 (error rate exponent).
Reports current measurement of the raw BER.
Notes:
1. The 'x' parameter is only returned if the error rate has
exceeded the computational resolution of the system.
2. 'No Data' is returned if the error rate cannot be
calculated.
3. 'Sampling' is returned if not enough data is currently
available to calculate the error rate.
Corrected
BER Command:
Response:
<1/CBER_'cr'
>1/CBER_xm.mE-ee'cr''lf']
Where:
x = < or > (data modifier to indicate that the E
b
/N
0
is less
than or greater than the returned value).
m.m = 1.0 to 9.9 (error rate mantissa).
ee = 1 to 99 (error rate exponent).
Reports current measurement of the corrected BER.
Notes:
1. The 'x' parameter is only returned if the error rate has
exceeded the computational resolution of the system.
2. 'No Data' is returned if the error rate cannot be
calculated.
3. 'Sampling' is returned if not enough data is currently
available to calculate the error rate.
