SATEL4CONFIG

Configures the Satel 400 MHz radio

Platform: 

SMART7 with RELAY7

Refer to the Satel Radio user documentation for complete and detailed instructions regarding the correct operation of the radio.

This command is used to configure the Satel 400 MHz radio. Settings in this command are stored directly on the radio and not saved through the SAVECONFIG command.

The receiver responds to the command immediately, but the radio settings will take some time to be applied. Log SATELSTATUS onchanged to receive a notification that configuration is complete. See the SATELSTATUS log.

 

  • Not all compatibility modes are available on every radio.

  • The radio_behavior setting determines whether the receive or transmit frequency will be changed.

  • If the TRIMTALK protocol is used, the base transmitter type (TRIMBLE or PACCREST) must be specified.

  • If the tx_power value entered does not correspond to one of the power levels supported by the radio module, the output power is set to the nearest possible value.

Do not interrupt power while the radio is being configured.
