Parameters are given in ASCII text. In the examples d represents a decimal value,
(e.g. dddd is four decimal digits) and h represents a hexadecimal value (e.g. hh is two
hex digits). These values must include leading zero padding where appropriate so that
the number of digits used is independent of value. In the examples c represents an
ASCII character (e.g. ccc is identifier composed of three ASCII characters
NOTE…
An unsupported command can be still a recognized and implemented command therefore the
RX8200 will return an ACK to an unsupported command but will take no action. The RX8000 can
behave in a similar manor for unsupported values of a supported command (e.g. the AUD;LVL
command), it will ACK the command without taking any action.
If more information is required about a command that is not supported please contact customer
services.
