Basic Protocol
All data is transmitted as asynchronous serial characters, suitable for transmission and
reception by a UART. In this case, the asynchronous character format is fixed at 9600
baud.
All data is transmitted in framed packets. The controller is assumed to be a PC or ASCII
dumb terminal, which is in charge of the process of monitor and control. The controller is
the only device which is permitted to initiate, at will, the transmission of data. Targets are
only permitted to transmit when they have been specifically instructed to do so by the
controller.
All bytes within a packet are printable ASCII characters, less than ASCII code 127. In
this context, the Carriage Return and Line Feed characters are considered printable.
All messages from controller to target require a response. This will be either to return
data which has been requested by the controller, or to acknowledge reception of an
instruction to change the configuration of the target.
