The serial input message string is expected in the following format.
<STX><message><message> ... <message><chksum><ETX>
<STX> ..................................................ASCII “start of text” character (STX = 02h)
<message> .............................................starts with an ASCII “Z”, then an ID character, followed
by the message data, a carriage return (CR = 0Dh), and a
line feed (LF = 0Ah) See the following table.
<checksum>...........................................the message checksum, same format as message
<ETX> ..................................................ASCII “end of text” character (ETX = 03h)
