CALL:BCCHannel

Function

The setting form of this command performs two functions: (1) sets the forward broadcast control channel (F-BCCH) level, and (2) turns the F-BCCH on/off state to ON. The query form returns the F-BCCH level. See Configuring Forward Channel Power Levels and Walsh Codes .

The optional [:SELected] keyword in this command specifies that the F-BCCH level and state being set/queried applies to the current system type ( CALL:STATus:CELL:SYSTem[:TYPE]? ).
