Status

N/A

26 bytes

Query only.
Used to query the configuration status of the unit. This
is the concise version of the RCS command.
Example:
CCS=a;b;c;d;e;’cr’’lf’
Where:
a = RF power amplifier state, 0 = Off, 1 = On (AMP)
b = mute state, 0 = un-muted, 1 = muted (MUT)
c = online status (ONL)
d = redundancy state and mode (ESW)
e = auto fault recovery mode (AFR)

CCS= CCS?

CCS=x….x

for details of
arguments)

Concise version of RFS.



Example:
CFS=.xxx;.xxx;xx.x;x……….;xx.x;

CFS= CFS?

CFS=x…..x

Identification

CID= 48

bytes

Command or Query.
CID is 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
will be read back from the unit as two 24-byte lines of
data.
Examples:
<1/CID= Station #001--SSPA #01--’cr’
>0001/CID=
<1/CID?’cr’
>0001/CID=’cr’
Station #001’cr’
--SSPA #01--’cr’’lf’
Default Value: ------------------------
