Slope Adjust SSA=x.x BDC
BUC 3 bytes,
numeric Command or Query.
Slope adjust level, valid from 0.0 to 1.0 with 0.1 resolution.
Example: SSA=0.3
SSA= (message ok)
SSA? (received ok, but
invalid arguments
found)
SSA* (message ok, but
not permitted in current
mode)
SSA! (command not
accepted by MBT-
4000B base unit. It
must be addressed to
BUC or BDC sub-units)
SSA? SSA=x.x
(same format
as command
arguments)
Set Redundancy
Switch
SSW=xy MBT 2 bytes Command only.
SSW control the switches dedicated to Slot1 or 2, and sets
them to either Port A or Port B.
Syntax:
SSW=xy
Where:
X = 1 or 2 depicting Slot 1 or 2
Y = A or B depicting the switch direction.
Direction
A
Switched to Converter on MBT_A
B Switched to Converter on MBT_B
SSW=(message ok)
SSW=xy N/A N/A
Set RTC Time TIM=hhmmss All 6 bytes,
numeric Command or Query.
A command in the form hhmmss, indicating the time from
midnight,
Where:
hh = hours, between 00 and 23
mm = minutes, between 00 and 59
ss = seconds, between 00 and 59
Example: TIM=231259 would be 23 hours, 12 minutes and
59 seconds from midnight. TIM = (message ok)
TIM? (received ok, but
invalid arguments
found)
TIM * (message ok, but
not permitted in current
mode)
TIM? TIM=hhmmss
(same format
as command
arguments)
