SHOW CON
Show Virtual Connection Status
Shows virtual connection status established by the latest ATDT command
sequence. (Works only with AT ON. See“AT [ON, OFF]” on Page 29)
If no connection is established, it displays NONE.
If a connection is active, it will display:
<Master unit address> TO <Remote (“dialed”) unit address>.
SHOW PWR
Show Measured RF Transmit Power
The SHOW PWR command displays the actual (measured) RF power output
in dBm. Unlike the PWR command, this command shows the actual level
being measured, not the programmed RF power setting.
SHOW SYNC
Show Clock-Synchronization Master Network Address
When used at a Remote station, this command will display Extended Address
and Unit Address of the Master or Extension radio to which the Remote is
synchronized. The network depth at the Remote, defined as the number of
downstream links from the Master, is displayed in parentheses.
SHOW SYNC works for Dependent Masters. A value of zero (0) means the
station is a Master synchronized to a Clock-Sync Master. The SHOW SYNC
command will display an asterisk (*) after depth value if the radio is operating
with co-located Masters.
SKIP [NONE, 1...8]
Skip Radio Operating Zones
This command sets or displays which, if any, of the eight zones will be
skipped from the radio’s hopping sequence. Skipping zones is one way of
dealing with constant interference on one or more frequencies in the radio’s
operating band. See “A Word About Radio Interference” on Page 8 for more
information on dealing with interference.
Tables 13, 14, 15 and 16 show the frequency range covered by each zone. The
command parameter is either the keyword NONE or an undelimited string of
up to four digits where each digit 1...8 represents a corresponding zone to
skip. (For zone parameter input, the digits can appear in any order and can be
optionally separated by a blank space.) The SKIP command is display-only at
Remote radios. (Remotes must be synchronized with the Master radio to
display the skip status.)
