0 indicates success when trying to send a message to a radio.
1 instructs the server to send the message to the radio.
The value of a command is solely driven by write requests from OPC clients. This
value will not be updated except in response to write requests.
To send a specific message to a radio, write a 1 to the respective OPC tag. The
server will forward the request to the radio and will then assign the OPC tag a
value of 0 or -1. 0 if the request was completed successfully, -1 if it failed.
You can set or clear the status of a command by writing a 0 or -1 value to it. The
server will only send the specified message to the radio when the command is
set to 1.
3.13 Description of OPC "Commands"
3.13.1 ResetStats (RLX-FH radios)
Clears the following radio values to zero:
ƒ TotBytFwd
ƒ TotBytRev
ƒ TotGoodPacks
ƒ TXPackErrs
3.13.2 SoftReset (RLX-IH radios)
SoftReset causes the RLX-IH radio to reboot. The radio will be temporarily
unavailable while rebooting. It is normal for other tags from this radio to change
to quality "OPC_QUALITY_LAST_KNOWN" while the radio is unavailable. After
5 to 30 seconds this situation should right itself automatically. Any attempt to
send a SoftReset command while the radio is rebooting will fail and SoftReset
will get a -1 value from the server.
Rebooting RLX-IH radios causes the following tags to be reset to zero:
ƒ TotBytTX
ƒ TotFailPacksTX
ƒ TotGoodPacksTX
