(See Note 1) Parameter 40 (p40): Interface buffer size.
p40 = nnnnnn, where “nnnnnn” is the currently programmed buffer size in bits.
Notes:
1. Available with buffer support hardware only.
2. Parameters 23, 24, and 25 are only returned when fast acquisition is enabled. See
the “FAM_” command definition.
B.2.8.18 Bulk Consolidated Analog Status
This command is similar to the “BCS_” command, but returns modem analog parameters.
Command: <add/BCAS_”cr”
Response: >add/BCAS_p1,p2,p3, . . . pn”cr””lf”]
Where: “pn” is the last parameter returned.
Parameter 1 (p1): Receive signal level.
p1 = -nn, where “nn” is the value of the receive signal level in dBm.
Parameter 2 (p2): Raw BER.
p2 = nnnnE-4, where “nnnn” is the raw bit errors in 10000 bits.
Parameter 3 (p3): Corrected BER.
p3 = nE-e, where “n” is the mantissa, and “e” is exponent (power of 10).
Parameter 4 (p4): E
b
/N
0
.
p4 = n.n, where “n.n” is E
b
/N
0
in dB.
(See Notes) Parameter 5 (p5): Interface Buffer Fill Status.
p5 = nn, where “nn” is the fill status in percent.
Notes:
1. Parameters 1 through 5 are dependent on carrier acquisition. If the decoder is not
locked, empty data blocks are returned (,,,,,).
2. Available with buffer support hardware only.
