This page describes the device driver and the device window for the Work Amplifier series
The driver was tested with the following models:
Device window pages
The following table shows which device window pages are available with this individual device type.
--- The transmit parameters
--- The meter readings.
--- The redundancy parameters.
--- The faults page.
--- The device info page.
--- The maintenance page. The configuration parameters described below are set at this page.Configuration parameters
At the maintenance page of the device window there are a couple of configuration parameters which must be set to make the software talk to the unit.
| parameter | description |
|---|---|
| address | The device address (decimal) as set at the device's front panel. |
| Serial | Remember to set the line parameters for the serial interface |
| powerDisplayMode | Defines the display of gain or attenuation in the parameter section. |
| extMuteInput | Defines to disable or enable the input for Hardware Mute (RF-Inhibit). |
| autoSave | Store current parameters automatically in the instrument startup configuration. |
Remote Control
Default TCP Port = 50505
Default Address = A
