Description
Get SSPB DC Voltage Insert State
{aaSS}
returns {aaSSx}
where: x = 1 if DC voltage is inserted on the SSPB loop through.
x = 0 if DC voltage is disabled on the SSPB loop through.
Get SSPB 10 MHz Ref. Insert State
{aaSD}
returns {aaSDx}
where: x = 1 if the 10 MHz reference is inserted on the SSPB loop through.
x = 0 if the 10 MHz reference is disabled on the SSPB loop through.
Get LNB DC Voltage Insert State
{aaSL}
returns {aaSLx}
where: x = 1 if DC voltage is inserted on the LNB loop through.
x = 0 if DC voltage is disabled on the LNB loop through.
Get LNB 10 MHz Reference Insert State
{aaSB}
returns {aaSBx}
where: x = 1 if the 10 MHz reference is inserted on the LNB loop through.
x = 0 if the 10 MHz reference is disabled on the LNB loop through.
Get SSPB Inserted Voltage and Current
{aaSJ}
returns {aaSJxxxxx,yyyyy}
where: xxxxx = Measured DC voltage inserted on the SSPB loop through.
where: yyyyy = Measured DC current inserted on the SSPB loop through.
Get LNB Inserted Voltage and Current
{aaSK}
returns {aaSKxxxxx,yyyyy}
where: xxxxx = Measured DC voltage inserted on the LNB loop through.
where: yyyyy = Measured DC current inserted on the LNB loop through.
Get 10 MHz Reference Operating Mode
{aaSM}
returns {aaSMx}
(option E)
where: x = 1 if the mode is Internal Reference.
x = 2 if the mode is External Pass.
x = 3 if the mode is External Pass Auto.
x = 4 if the mode is External Lock. (• Option E6 only)
x = 5 if the mode is External Lock Auto. (• Option E6 only)
Get IP Address
{aaSi}
returns {aaSixxx.xxx.xxx.xxx}
(ethernet option)
where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx = IP address
Get Subnet Mask
{aaSs}
returns {Ssxxx.xxx.xxx.xxx}
(ethernet option)
where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx = subnet mask
Get Alarm Status
{aaSA}
returns {SAabc}
(ethernet option)
where a = SSPB Alarm State (0 for alarm off; 1 for alarm on)
b = LNB alarm state (0 for alarm off; 1 for alarm on)
c = Summary alarm state (0 for alarm off; 1 for alarm on)
