Operating Status
This section describes the commands that can be use to obtain Receiver status
information. There are several ways to obtain Receiver status using
commands. For example, you can send a command to display the Receiver
Status screen, to read the error queue, and to read the diagnostic log. You can
also send a sequence of commands to read and control the status registers for
alarm generation.
This section defines all of the commands used for status reporting.
A comprehensive discussion on how you can monitor and control alarm
conditions using the status registers is included.
