Command or
Response to Query
Description of Arguments
(Note that all arguments are ASCII numeric codes, i.e., ASCII codes between 48 and 57)
Query
(Instr Code and
Qualifier)
Response to Query
(Target to controller)
Front Panel LCD
Brightness
LCD= 2 bytes
00 to 30
Command or Query.
Front Panel LCD Brightness
00 to 09 : LCD Brightness 25%
10 to 19 : LCD Brightness 50%
20 to 29: LCD Brightness 75%
30: LCD Brightness 100%
Example: LCD=30
LCD? LCD=xx
Local/Remote
State
LRS= 1 byte,
value of 0, 1, 2
Command or Query.
Set Remote Entry Mode.
0 = Local, 1=Serial, 2=Ethernet
Example: LRS=1
NOTE: The customer will always have query access when using serial and telnet. Also, the LRS
command is available in all modes as a means of acquiring control. The intent of this command is
to limit changes from being made on multiple interfaces at the same time.
LRS? LRS=x
(see Description of
Arguments)
Unit MAC
Address
N/A 17 bytes Query only.
MAC address of the unit, reported in hexadecimal.
Example: MAC=00-06-B0-00-D2-A7 MAC? MAC=AA-BB-CC-DD-
EE-FF
Unit Alarm Mask MSK= 1 byte,
Value of 0, 1, 2
Command or Query.
Alarm mask conditions. If an alarm is masked, neither an alarm or a fault is set, and the user
will not know of a problem. Form of a, where:
0 = Alarm, 1 = Fault, 2 = Masked
a = External Reference Lock detect
The default value is 2
There could be a variable delay in the time it takes for the internal reference to lock to an
external reference, due warm-up characteristics and frequency differences between the
references. Therefore, the default setting is "masked" for the reference lock detect. This setting
may be changed if the customer so desires. The delay should be less than 1 s after 30 minutes
of warm-up time.
MSK? MSK=a
(see Description of
Arguments)
Mute State MUT= 1 byte,
value of 0,1
Command or Query.
Mute the unit, where:
0 = Disabled,
1 = Enabled
Example: MUT=1
MUT? MUT=x
(same format as
command arguments)
Number of
Unread stored
Events
N/A 3 bytes, numerical Query only.
Returns the number of Stored Events which remain unread, in the form xxx.
Example reply: NUE=018 NUE? NUE=xxx
