affect this value. Example reply: NUS=198
Rx Eb/No N/A 4 bytes,
numerical
Query only.
Unit returns the value of Ebi/No, between 0 and
16dB. Resolution 0.1 dB. Returns 99.9 if demod is
unlocked. Example: EBN=12.3 (which is Eb/No =
12.3 dB) For values greater than 16.0 dB, the reply
will be EBN=+016.
N/A EBN? EBN=xx.x (see
description for
details of
arguments)
RX Coarse
AGC
N/A 2 bytes,
numerical Query only.
Unit returns the vaue of Coarse AGC setting,
between 0 and 99
Example: AGC=76 N/A AGC? AGC=xx (see

arguments
Rx Freq
Offset N/A 5 bytes,
1st , + or -,
next 4 bytes
numerical Query only.
Unit returns the value of freq. offset of the carrier
being demodulated. Values range from ±0 to ± 30
kHz, 100 Hz resolution.Example: RFO=+02.3
(offset is +2.3 kHz) Returns 99999 if the demod is
unlocked.
N/A RFO? RFO=nxx.x (see
description for
details of
arguments)
Buffer Fill
State
N/A 2 bytes,
numerical Query only.
Unit returns the value of the buffer fill state. Values
range from 1 to 99% .Example: BFS=33 (buffer fill
state is 33%) Returns 00 if demod unlocked.
N/A BFS? BFS=xx (see
description for
details of
arguments)
Rx BER N/A 5 bytes Query only.
Unit returns the value of the estimated corrected
BER in the form a.b x 10exp-c. Fist and second
bytes are value, 3rd and 4th bytes are the
exponent. Returns 99999 if demod is unlocked.
Example: BER=4.8E3 (BER is 4.8 x 10-3)
N/A BER? BER=a.bEc
(see
description for
details of
arguments)
Redundancy
State N/A 1 byte, value of
0 or 1
Query only.
Returns the redundancy state of the unit, where: N/A RED? RED=x (see
