The QLTY command is available for polling the receiver to display the current
relative Signal Quality of the decoded digital signal. Observe the following syntax.
SA1QLTY
QLTY
polls the receiver for the current relative Signal Quality (decoded digital
signal). The receiver responds by displaying the following.
QLTY=#
# can be any number from 0 (bad) through 9 (good). Signal Quality depends, in
part, on the current Symbol Rate. For information about Signal Quality, see “Dish
Pointing menu”.

The STATE command is available for polling the receiver for the current receiver
operating/Signal State. Observe the following syntax.
SA1STATE
STATE
polls the receiver for the current operating/ Signal State. The receiver re-
sponds by displaying the following.
STATE=#
# can be (see Table 16). Returned status codes represent all possible operating
states. Note that each command response (instance) reflects the instantaneous op-
erating state of the receiver which may indicate a response which is erroneous or
unexpected. If an unexpected response is received, the steady or normalized oper-
ating state of the receiver can best be determined if this command is execute re-
peatedly.

The AGC command is available for polling the receiver to display the current rela-
tive Signal Strength (or AGC level) of the decoded digital signal. Observe the fol-
lowing syntax.
SA1AGC
AGC
polls the receiver for the current relative Signal Strength (decoded digital
signal). The receiver responds by displaying the following.
AGC=#
