Response to
Query
(Target to
Controller)
Online Status N/A MBT N/A Query only.
Returns the online status of the unit (useful in redundant configurations) in
the form x.
Return position of corresponding RF switch.
Example for MBT-4000B base unit:
<0001/ONL?{cr}
>0001/ONL={cr}{lf}
ON1=ON ,{cr}
ON2=ON , {cr}{lf}
Example for BDC:
<0001A1/ONL?{cr}
>0001A1/ONL=1{cr}{lf}
Example for BUC:
<0001A2/ONL?{cr}
>0001A2/ONL=1{cr}{lf}
ONL=
ONL?
ONL? ONL=x

COMM I/O
N/A MBT 1 byte, numeric Query only.
Used to Retrieve AUX COMM I/O of the MBT-4000B base unit, in the form
n, where:
n=1 (AUX COMM)
Example: <0001/RAI?1
Returns:
>0001/RAI=
12V1=On
IO1A=0
IO1B=1
RSVD=0
Note: 0=Logic low or input voltage < 0.5 vdc.
1=Logic level 1 or input voltage > 2.7 vdc.
