Statistics
N/A 3 bytes Query only.
Unit returns the Number of stored Statistics that remain Unread, in the form xxx.
Example: NUS=126
N/A NUS? NUS=xxx
Part Number N/A Various 1-96
bytes
Query only.
Returns the Comtech EF Data part number of the unit. This part number is the unit’s DOTCODE
at the time it was manufactured. The DOTCODE may be up to 96 printable ASCII characters
long.
Example: <1/PNM?’cr’
>0001/PNM=MBT5003.350WRSW00’cr’’lf’
N/A PNM? PNM=x….x

External Reference Status
Note: For XRF (External reference status):
N/A = no external reference;
05M = 5 MHz;
10M = 10 MHz.
XRF will always be N/A if the internal reference oscillator option is not installed.
Reference
Oscillator
Tuning
REF= 3 bytes Command or Query.
Adjusts the reference oscillator tuning voltage by sending a DAC value in the form xxx, where:
xxx is a numeric value from 0 to 255.
Default value: 087
Example: <1/REF=087’cr’
>0001/REF=’cr’’lf’
Note: This command sets the DAC value, but the actual Reference Oscillator tuning voltage can
be monitored using the RMS command.
