Status N/A All 40 bytes
alphanumeric
Query only.
Used to query the maintenance status of the unit in concise
format. Response is comma delimited as follows:
Example:
<0001/CMS?{cr}
>0001/CMS=aaa.a,bbb.b,ccc.c,ddd.d,eee.e,fff.f,ggg.g,h,I,j,k{cr} {lf}
All:
aaa.a=+15V power supply
bbb.b=+7.5V power supply
ccc.=+5V power supply
MBT-4000 Base Unit:
ddd.d=+28V power supply
eee.e=Ref oscillator tuning voltage
fff.f=
XXX.X (reserved for future use)
ggg.g= LNA current in mA for LNA B (AUX COMM2)
h=local RF switch position (A, B, or N)
i=Local IF switch position (A, B, or N)
j=Remote RF switch position (A or B)
k=Remote IF switch position (A or B)
Notes:
1. It is not possible to detect the absence of a remote switch.
2. N= Not present.
BDC:
