This command takes no arguments.

Force 1:1

Switch

FSW= None

Command

only.

Forces the unit to toggle the Unit Fail relay to the
‘fail’ state for approx 500ms. If the unit is a 1:1 pair,

and it is currently the ‘On Line’ unit, this will force a

switchover, so the unit will then be in ‘Standby’

mode. The command is always executed by the
unit, regardless of whether it is stand-alone, in a

1:1 pair, or part of a 1:N system.

This command takes no arguments.

10dB
attenuator
set

ATS=

1 byte, value of

0 or 1

FACTORY USE ONLY
Modulator output 10dB attenuator setting, where
0 = no attenuation
1 = 10 dB attenuation
Example: ATS=0
(Used for power-level calibration)

ATS= (message ok)
ATS? (received ok, but
invalid arguments found)
ATS* (message ok, but not

permitted in current mode)

ATS? ATS=n

where n is 0
or 1

bytes,

numerical

FACTORY USE ONLY
Modulator power output DAC setting. An argument
between 0000 and 4095 is required
Example: DAC=1287
(Used for power-level calibration)

DAC= (message ok)
DAC? (received ok, but
invalid arguments found)
DAC* (message ok, but not

permitted in current mode)

DAC? DAC=xxxx

where xxxx
is a value
between 0000
and 4095

Value

EWR=

7 bytes

Command only. FACTORY USE ONLY
A command in the form ddd,aaa, where ddd is a

single byte data value between 0 and 255, and aaa
is a starting address (in the range 0 - 127) within

the serial EEPROM, where the data is to be

written.
Example: EWR=127,104 means write the value

EWR= (message ok)
EWR? (received ok,
but invalid arguments found)
EWR* (message ok, but not

permitted in current mode)
