RXGAIN The default values for these offsets is 0 Example usage OFFSET TXGAIN 2 The result of this is that the output would be 2 dB greater than what would otherwise be transmitted In other words the TX gain range would be shifted down by two decibels If a TXGAIN of 72 dB were requested the calibration data interpolation would be done internally with the value of 74 dB If the user measures the TX gain with a power meter and finds that gain 1 high by 1 5 dB then he might enter OFFSET TXGAIN 1 5 PC MODE This is the converse of MODEM MODE At any time the user may type MODE and the M amp C computer will again behave as if a PC or network is directly attached to the serial port rather than a modem PORT TO PORT OFF This command sets gets the status of port to port function When active on then function re transmits all serial port data from COMO to COMI and also from COMI to COMO regardless of data content If the M amp C interprets data as a legitimate command then the command is acted on Otherwise the data 1s ignored by the M amp C When ON the M amp C WARNING When this function is ON the M amp C will not automatically change baudrate to 1200 when the external data 1s changed to 1200 REFRESH This command refreshes the RF hardware to presently chosen receive and transmit channels and gain settings RESET This command resets the M amp C computer Power on time will reset to zero
