Effect and description of command
SL**>
Set current settings as permanent settings.
This command must be used only seldom and under controlled conditions in
order to avoid the corruption of the settings, which may happen in case the
power supply fails in the middle of the memory save procedure.
SL%V?
Get Firmware revision information (response ’Vn.nn’)
SL%D?
Get modem type
SL%S?
Get modem serial number (response ‘nnnnnnnnnn’ or ‘No Serial nr’)
SL%C?
Get specified information field. If not specified the response is ‘No version id’).
For more information please contact SATEL Oy.
SL%P=1
Activate
Programming mode
without the use of PROG pin. Note that the serial
port data speed remains the same as in the data transfer mode.
SL%B?
Get serial data parameters, response is a,b,c,d where
a= "38400", "19200", "9600", "4800", "2400" or "1200" (defines the baud rate)
b= "8", "7" or "9" (defines the character length)
c= "N", "E" or "O" (defines the parity)
d= "1" or "2" (defines the number of stop bits)
SL%B=a,b,c,d
Set serial data parameters for data ports, where
a= "38400", "19200", "9600", "4800", "2400" or "1200" (defines the baud rate)
b= "8", "7" or "9" (defines the character length)
c= "N", "E" or "O" (defines the parity)
d= "1" or "2" (defines the number of stop bits)
Response is "OK" at the original baud rate.
SL+P=xx
Get measured signal strength from the remote modem i.e. SL “ping”.
If a remote radio modem is pinged the response is “OK, Modem xxxx rssi –80
dBm”, where xxxx=RX1/RX2 address (in case the Tx/Rx addressing is configured)
or the terminal address of the modem ( in case the Message Routing is ON).
“OK” is first received from the current radio modem to acknowledge that the SL-
ping command has been interpreted correctly. The rest of the response will take
a little longer to come, depending on the length of the radio link.
The remote radio modem that is to be pinged does not need to have SL-
commands ON.
The value of the RSSI is between –118 and –80 dBm. If the signal strength is
better than –80 dBm, -80 dBm is shown.
If the current radio modem is pinged, the response is “Local OK”.
Please note that the SL-ping message will come out from the serial line of the
radio modem that is pinged and also the repeater stations using the Tx/Rx
addressing.
Note, SL-ping is a very short message so it may not give accurate results from
the link condition. Even if the responses are good, channel interference may
cause problems with longer data messages.
