Pairs
Response Format
(Enveloping <CR><LF> characters shown)
getident
None
<CR><LF>ok pn <Part Name> swver <A/G> <Firmware Version> sn <Serial
Number><CR><LF>
where:
<part#> = unit part number
<A/G> = firmware image prefix (A or G)
The device flash contains two firmware images
A
– primary image is running
G
– backup image is running
<swver#> = firmware version of the running primary or backup image
<serial#> = unit serial number
getstatus
None
<CR><LF>ok fault <Fault Status> fwdpwr <RF Forward Power> revpwr <RF Reverse
Power> temp <Device Temperature> unmutetime <Running Unmute Time><CR><LF>
where:
<Fault Status> = 0 (no fault) or 1 (fault condition occurred)
<RF Forward Power> = forward RF power in dBm
<RF Reverse Power> = reverse RF power in dBm
<RF Device Temperature> = system temperature in C
<Running Unmute Time> = unit of time unmute since the last mute
getfaults
None
<CR><LF>ok power <Power Fault> pll <PLL Fault> overtemp <Over Temperature Fault>
mute <Mute Status> overinput <Over Input Fault><CR><LF>
where:
<Power Fault> = 0 (power ok) or 1 (power issue)
<PLL Fault> = 0 (pll ok) or 1 (error
– pll loss of lock)
<Over Temperature Fault> = 0 (temp ok) or 1 (error - over temp condition exists)
<Mute Status> = 0 (unit unmuted) or 1 (unit muted)
<Over Input Fault> = 0 (input voltage ok) or 1 (input voltage too high)
resettempfault
None
<CR><LF>ok<CR><LF>
<CR><LF>err<CR><LF>
(when system temperature is above trip point)
