Question

How is the RCP Command structure for configuring ANR replenishment limits?

Answer

To configure ANR replenishment limits, the RCP command must follow the correct structure:

https://<IP_address>/rcp.xml?command=0x0bb0&type=P_OCTET&direction=WRITE&num=<descriptor>&payload=<hex_value>

Here it is an example and the payload explanation:

https://<IP_address>/rcp.xml?command=0x0bb0&type=P_OCTET&direction=WRITE&num=1&payload=0x000000C8000003E8

Payload Breakdown

• 000000C8 → Replenishment speed multiplier
  (Hex C8 = decimal 200)

• 000003E8 → Maximum bitrate in kbps
  (Hex 03E8 = decimal 1000 kbps)

This example demonstrates proper use of:

• A required num descriptor

• Correct P_OCTET payload composition

• Accurate conversion of replenishment parameters into hexadecimal format

Note

This command is intended for systems using ANR with BVMS, as replenishment control is part of the ANR functionality.
