Ext AGC Status (—, Idle, Locked, Lowset, Alarm, Max, Min, Pull-up, Pull-down)
This read-only parameter shows the current status of the external AGC that can be one of
the following:
• —: the external AGC is disabled;
• Idle: the external AGC is stopped (e.g., right after switching on, before the output power
reaches the nominal level);
• Low Set: the external AGC is stopped because external power reading was
too low when the output power was set;
• Alarm: the external AGC is stopped because an Alarm signal from external power amplifier
is detected;
• Locked: the external AGC has reached the desired power level;
• Max/Min: the external AGC is stopped because the correction is too high;
• Pull up/down: the external AGC is moving up or down the driving power level.
See the AGC: Implementation and details paragraph for more information.
