User Manual 1260-60A/B
Module Specific Syntax 3-3
PSETUP
The PSETUP command causes the specified module to transmit
its sequence mode. The supported sequence modes are IMM
(Immediate), BBM (Break-Before-Make), and MBB (Make-
Before-Break). The syntax used is:
PSETUP <mod addr>[;<mod addr>][;<mod addr>]....
The response to the PSETUP command for the 1260-60A,B is
as follows:
<header>
<mod addr>.<seq mode> <mod addr>.END
where <seq mode> is IMM, BBM, or MBB, and
where <header> is as follows:
1260-60A,B: <mod addr>. 1260-60A,B Triple SPDT
MICROWAVE SWITCHING MODULE
Note the actual <header> sent is determined by the setting of the
ID Byte DIP switches on the module.
SETUP
The SETUP command affects only the DC relays in Banks A and
B. These relays may be programmed as Break-Before-Make,
Make-Before-Break, or Immediate. The microwave relays (S 1
through S3) are always implemented as Break-Before-Make
(BBM).
Standard Features
The 1260-60A,B supports most standard 1260 features. These
include Confidence Mode, Equate/Exclude/Scan Lists
commands, and the STORE/RECALL commands.
WARNING
The state of the RF relays should NOT be changed
when a signal is present. The relays should be
"cold-switched" only. The recommended procedure
for ensuring that an OPEN or CLOSE command has
been completed is as follows:
1. Enable the confidence mode for the relays. This is done by
