Some remarks should be taken into account with these keywords:

  • the keywords are case sensitive,
  • the latest known value at that moment will be used,
  • if no value is known at all, the keyword will not be replaced, and will remain in the command,
  • the values are transmitted in non-scientific notation, and will use a '.' as a decimal point.

Power expressed in milliWatt in dB values.

  • 1 mW = 0 dBm
  • 2 mW = 3 dBm
  • 100 mW = 20 dBm
  • 1 W = 30 dBm
  • 100 W = 50 dBm
