Protocol

The Control Protocol is a text-based (ASCII string) protocol. Commands are sent with simple character strings with terms separated by spaces and completed with a carriage return character \ (ASCII code decimal 13). The general form for commands is:

\ \ \ ... \

A white space character (space or tab) must be included between the command and each parameter. Extra white space characters can be sent for readability if desired. In this document a single space will be used. If a command is accepted, the unit will respond to each command with an acknowledgement string whose syntax varies with each command.
