7.8 Optical to electrical converters

7.8.1 Hello command

An OE converter will respond to a

hello command

with:

0409?
0904OE/SDI/reclocking, not calibrated\
hw rev 1.0\
sw rev 1.0\
protocol ver 1.0
or
0409?
0904OE/T140/reclocking, not calibrated\
hw rev 1.0\
sw rev 1.0\
protocol ver 1.0
"Not calibrated" refers to the optical power measurement which is not calibrated.

7.8.2 Info command

The card will respond to the command string "info" by sending the card status. This is a
typical example.
0409info
0904signal = -12.2 dBm\
optical signal: yes\
reclocker locked: yes\
vcc = 4.97V
Note that since the optical signal strength is not calibrated, the measurement will be wrong
(typ. +/- 5 dB).
