Statistics

(cont.)

In VersaFEC-2 ACM mode, the statistics sub-body is defined as

AA.ABB.BCC,DD,EE.E,FF.Fddmmyyhhmmss, where:

AA.A=Minimum SNR during sample period.

BB.B=Average SNR during sample period.

CC=Maximum Rx ModCod in decimal during sample period.

DD=Minimum Rx ModCod in decimal during sample period.

EE.E=Negative value of Minimum Rx Signal Level (RSL) in dB during sample period.

FF.F=Negative value of Average Rx Signal Level (RSL) in dB during sample period.

ddmmyy = date stamp.

hhmmss = time stamp.

Notes:

1) If there are less than five retrievable statistics, the remaining positions are padded with zeros.

2) If there are no new events, the unit replies with RNN*.

3) Do not mix use of RNN and RNS. Comtech EF Data recommends that you use the RNN query instead of the

legacy RNS query. RNN includes all information provided in RNS *PLUS* Rx Signal Level (RSL). Since RNN and

RNS use the same index system for statistics entries, if users mix use of the two queries, the statistics entries won't

be displayed sequentially by either RNN or RNS. For this reason, or if you change your operating mode between

Non-ACM and ACM (IP-ACM or V2-ACM) modes, Comtech EF Data recommends that you execute the Clear All

Stored Statistics (CAS=) command before retrieving any further statistics.

This command takes no arguments. Forces the modem to clear the firmware statistics log.

None

Command only.

This command takes no arguments

Forces unit to toggle Unit Fail relay to “fail” state for approx 500ms. If unit is part of a 1:1 pair and is currently the ‘Online’ unit,

this forces a switchover, so unit is then in ‘Standby’ mode. The command is always executed by the unit, regardless of

whether it is standalone, in a 1:1 pair, or part of a 1:N system.

Command or Query.

Enables or disables the 1:N control. This affects a control line on the 25-pin rear panel connector. This must be enabled

when the modem is attached to a CRS-300 1:N Controller or a CRS-500 1:N Switch in the form x, where:
