Common commands are used in all type of devices to detect there presence on cctalk

network or to describe them. Information like: manufacturer or product type id, serial

number, different settings etc. are transmitted to host.

6.5.1.1 Command 254 [hexFE], Simple poll 

The fastest way for host to detect all attached devices in cctalk network.

Addressed device-coin selector respond with ACK (

Acknowledge

).

If within predicted amount of time Coin selector does not respond coin selector is

probably not connected, powered or simple not working properly.

Message format is:
