A.8.2 Bulk Consolidated Status Faults
Bulk Consolidated
Status Faults Status:
Response: MC BCSF_'cr'
BCSF_abcdefghijkl'cr''lf']
This command causes all modem fault status information to
be returned. To reduce the length of the response, fault
status is embedded into the bit structure of the characters
that are returned. Faults are indicated by a binary 1 in the
designated bit position.
Where:
Character a: Modulator fault status character 1.
Bit 6 = 1 always.
Bit 5 = Modulator module fault.
Bit 4 = RF output status. Actual not programmed
status (1 = ON, 0 = OFF).
Bit 3 through Bit 0 = Binary representation (0 to 10)
of the number of modulator stored faults.
Character b: Modulator fault status character 2.
Bit 6 = 1 always.
Bit 5 = IF Synthesizer.
Bit 4 = Data Clock Synthesizer.
Bit 3 = reserved.
Bit 2 = reserved.
Bit 1 = AGC Level.
Bit 0 = reserved.
Note: In TX Burst mode only.
Character b: Modulator fault status character 2.
Bit 6 = 1 always.
Bit 5 = IF Synthesizer.
Bit 4 = Data Clock Synthesizer.
Bit 3 = I Channel.
Bit 2 = Q Channel.
Bit 1 = AGC Level.
Bit 0 = reserved.
Note: In TX Continuous mode only.
Character c: Modulator fault status character 3.
Bit 6 = 1 always.
Bit 5 = reserved.
Bit 4 = reserved.
Bit 3 = reserved.
Bit 2 = reserved.
Bit 1 = reserved.
Bit 0 = reserved.
Character d: Demodulator fault status character 1.
Bit 6 = 1 always.
Bit 5 = Demod module fault.
Bit 4 = Carrier detect status (0 for decoder lock).
Bit 3 through Bit 0 = Binary representation (0 to 10)
of the number of demodulator stored faults.
Note: In RX Continuous mode only.
