numeric
Command or Query.
This command allows the user to set the alarm window in
± % of
the calibrated LNA Current. Valid inputs are 20 to 50 in
increments of 1%. In addition, setting the value to 99 disables
the alarm function.
Default is Disabled.
Example: LCW=30, set alarm window for LNA A (Aux Comm 1)
to
± 30%.
