SCAN_OFF

Turns the PN scanner OFF and returns the scanner to normal phone

operation.

Syntax

scan_off

Example

scan_off

Response

PN scanning ends.

SCAN_PARSE

Reads in a binary log file containing Dense-Pack searcher packets

and writes out an ASCII file listing the Dense-Pack search scans

only.

The Dense-Pack scanner log packet contains the time stamp of the

search, Rx power at the end of the search, LNA state during the

search, instantaneous E

c

/I

o

of each of the four largest energy peaks

in the search window of each PN, and each peak’s position (time

delay).

Individual E

c

values can be computed from this by adding

Rx

+ E

c

/I

o

, where Rx represents an estimate of the total power I

o

.

Note

The scan_parse command only parses out Dense-Pack searcher packets from

the binary data.

The following is an example of output from the scan_parse

command:

The columns of scan_parse output contain the following data:

Syntax

scan_parse log_file_name output_file_name

Example

scan_parse M2817330.007 search_scans.txt

Response

The Dense-Pack log file M2817330.007 is parsed and the Dense-Pack

search scans it contains are written to the file search_scans.txt.

SCAN_PN_ID

In user interface screen mode, the Retriever Pilot Scanner supports

the ability to display 4-letter cell sector names rather than PN offset

numbers. The scan_pn_id command lets you enter these cell sector

names into the phone’s programmable memory.
