8. ASCII Language Specification
Important Note:
All the commands described in this section are interactive
ASCII commands and are not analogous to standalone commands. Refer to
section 9 for details regarding standalone commands.
PMX-4EX-SA ASCII protocol is case sensitive. All commands should be in upper
case letters. The [axis] value in the relevant commands below can be "X", "Y",
"Z", or "U".
An invalid command is returned with a “?”. Always check for the proper reply
when a command is sent.
For USB and RS-485 communication, the commands detailed in table 8.0 are
valid.
