(Instruction &
Qualifier)
Response to
Query
Auto Fault
Recovery AFR= 1 byte,
value of 0,
1 Command or Query.
Automatically mutes SSPA output in the event of detected fault.
If enabled, it causes the output to go active (un-mute) if all faults
are cleared. If disabled, output remains muted even if all faults
are cleared.
Example:
<1/AFR=1’cr’
>0001/AFR=’cr’’lf’ AFR=
AFR?
AFR* AFR? AFR=x

of
Arguments)
RF Power
Amplifier
State AMP= 1 byte,
value of 0, 1 Command or Query.
Turn ON or OFF the RF power amplifiers, in the form x, where:
0 = Off
1 = On
Example: <1/AMP=1’cr’
AMP=
AMP?
AMP* AMP? AMP=x
(See
Description of
Arguments)
Attenuation ATT= 5 bytes,
numerical Command or Query.
Set a valid attenuation level, in 0.25 dB increments, in the form
xx.xx.
Example: <1/ATT=12.25’cr’
ATT=
ATT?
ATT* ATT? ATT=xx.xx
(See
Description of
Arguments)
Gain Offset GOF= 5 bytes,
numerical Command or Query.
Set or query the adjusted attenuation level, in 0.25 dB
increments, in a 1:1 redundant system so power is equal
between the online and offline units when a switchover occurs, in
the form xx.xx.
Example: <1/GOF=02.00’cr’
GOF=
GOF?
GOF* GOF? GOF =xx.xx
