Example command: $01T(cr)
response: !0118245160(cr) The command
requests the ADAM-5000/TCP sys- tem at address
01h to send all existing I/O module numbers. The
system at address 01h responds with I/O module
numbers 18, 24, 51 and 60 in slots 0-3. This means
that the ADAM-5000/TCP system contains an
ADAM-5018,ADAM-5024, ADAM-5051 and
ADAM-5060 in slots 0 thru 3.
