Concise
Configuration
Status
N/A
26 bytes
Query only.
Returns the configuration status of the unit. This is the concise version of the RCS command, response is semicolon
delimited in the form aa.aa;b;c;d;e;ff.ff;g;hhh; ’cr’’lf’ where:
aa.aa = attenuation in dB (ATT)
b = RF power amplifier state (AMP):
0 = Off
1 = On
c = mute state (MUT):
0 = unmuted
1 = muted
d = online status (ONL)
e = redundancy state and mode (ESW)
ff.ff = Attenuator offset in dB (AOF)
g = auto fault recovery mode (AFR)
hhh = External reference status:
N/A = no external reference
05M for 5 MHz
10M for a 10 MHz (see Note)
Note: hhh is always N/A if the internal reference oscillator option is not installed.

Circuit
Identification
CID=
48 bytes
Command or Query.
Sets or returns a user-defined string of data that may be used to identify or name the unit or station. The CID is a 48-byte
field of data that is entered as one line, but it is read back from the unit as two 24-byte lines of data.
Default Value:
------CID MESSAGE-------

Example 1:
<1/CID= Station #001--SSPA #01--’cr’
