Parame-

ter Name Parameter List

CHAN

1Selects the Channel Number: CN = 1 to 32.

Each Channel is defined by three parameters: Car-

rier Frequency, Channel

Spacing and Allowed Output Power level.

CN = 0 is reserved to set up the Frequency Auto-

matic scanning mode.

The LINK CHAN 0 command also forces the radio 

modem to continue scanning

starting from the channel currently selected by 

automatic scanning algorithm.

In Automatic scanning mode, to check the channel 

currently used or scanned,

the STATE command must be used

FEC

0 – Disable Forward Error Correction, a default 

setting (see note below)

1 – Enable Forward Error Correction (see note 

below)

FHOP

(1 – 32) – Frequency Hoping Pattern number LINK 

FHOP command can be processed only if the 

Channel Map (up to 32 channels) is defined by 

AWLaunch or by MAP command.

MOD

– DBPSK

– DQPSK, a default settings 3 – D8PSK

– D16QAM

– GMSK

– 4FSK

PWRB / 

PWRW

0 – Automatic Transmit Power control, a default 

setting for Remote units (15 – 30) / (30 – 1000) – RF 

output Power in dBm / mW

PROT

1 – “Simplex Receiver” a default setting (see note 

below) 2 – “Simplex Transmitter”

– “Half Duplex” Base (reserved)

– “Half Duplex” Repeater (reserved) 5 – 

Not used

– Not used

– “TRMB Receiver” (used with GMSK mod-

ulation)

– “TRMB Transmitter” (used with GMSK 

modulation)

– “Transparent w/EOT” Repeater (used 

with GMSK and 4FSK) 10 – “Repeater” (ArWest 

Proprietary Simplex)

11 

– “TRMB Repeater” (used with GMSK 

modulation)

12 

– “Transparent w/EOT” Receiver (used 

with GMSK and 4FSK) 13 – “Transparent w/EOT” 

Transmitter (used with GMSK and 4FSK) 14 – “STL 

Receiver” (used with 4FSK modulation)

15 – “STL Transmitter” (used with 4FSK modula-

tion) 16 - Not used

17 - “Fast Async” Receiver (used with GMSK and 

4FSK) 18 - “Fast Async” Transmitter (used with 

GMSK and 4FSK)

19 - “Transparent w/EOT Character” Receiver (used 

with GMSK and 4FSK) 20 - “Transparent w/EOT 

Character” Transmitter (used with GMSK and 4FSK)

PWRB / 

PWRW

(15 – 30) / (30 – 1000) – RF output Power in dBm / 

mW

RTR

0 -No Retransmission in the wireless cluster
1 – There is Repeater in the wireless cluster, valid 
for Base only

SCRAM

0 – No Scrambling (a default setting) (1 – 255) 

1 – Seed for Pseudo-Random Sequence Generator

FEC

0 – Disable Forward Error Correction (FEC), a de-

fault setting  

1– Enable Reed-Solomon encoding

CHAR

(0 – 255) – defines the ASCI code of the symbol 

indicating the end of a data chunk of “Transparent 

w/EOT Character” protocol.

ADDR

Indicates the number of address bytes of “STL” 

protocol’s data frame.

CLKCORR

0 – Disables Clock Correction algorithm of STL 

protocol 1- Enables Clock Correction algorithm of 

STL protocol.

LINK FHOP and LINK CHAN commands can be pro-

cessed only if Frequency Map is defined. Auto-

scanning may not start automatically, only when 

scanning requested via CLI command (see
LINK CHAN 0 and STATE commands). The frequency 

defined by CHAN parameter is not valid if Frequency 

Hoping mode is selected. The radio link with GMSK 

and 4FSK modulations are used by Non-ArWest pro-

tocols only. Enabling FEC via LINK FEC command pro-

vides different options for different protocols:

•  Enables Read-Solomon encoding for frame’s 

header used by ArWest proprietary protocols

•  Enables Hamming encoding for Trimble and Pa-

cific Crest compatible protocols

•  Enables Trellis encod-

ing for Satel compatible protocol 

For JAVAD GNSSproprietary protocols, the 

Read-Solomon FEC encoding is always applied to 

data payload. 

•  “Half Duplex” Base and “Half Duplex” Remote 

protocols are not supported in current release. 

LINK ADDR and LINK CLKCORR commands are not 

recommended for using on site of End Users.
