Device window pages

The following table shows which device window pages are available with this individual device type.

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).
extRef Defines the reference source.
autoSave Store current parameters automatically in the instrument startup configuration.
adjLO Defines the usage of a individual transmit frequency.

Remote Control

Default TCP Port= 50505
