How To...
This chapter contains step-by-step instructions to help you with typical tasks. It will help you
to familiarize yourself with the receiver commands without going into too much detail.
For a comprehensive description of the command set, refer to chapter 3. You can also click
on any command or SBF block name in this manual to be redirected to the full description of
that command or SBF block.
You can enter user commands in many different ways:
• Commands can be accessed graphically through menus in RxControl and in the web
interface (see section 1.1.4).
• Using the Data Link program provided in the RxTools suite (or any suitable terminal em-
ulation program), you can enter commands manually through one of the receiver input
ports (see section 1.1). In this chapter, user commands are referred to by their full name
for readability. When typing the command, you can always use the short mnemonic
equivalent to save typing effort. For instance, instead of typing
setCOMSettings
, you
can type
scs
.
• You can type commands or mnemonics in the console window of RxControl (menu
Tools
> Expert Console
) or of the web interface (menu
Admin > Expert Console
).
Depending on the capabilities of your particular receiver (see section 1.33), some of the user
commands, SBF blocks or communication interfaces described in this document may not be
supported.
