All forms are case insensitive. One or more spaces are required to separate keywords from
arguments.
A delay or width is sent as
ADelay 23.5u
CWidth 40n
Acceptable suffixes are:
p - pico
(1E-12)
n - nano (1E-9)
u - micro (1E-6)
m
- milli (1E-3)
and exponential notation is not supported. Default is nanoseconds.
Trigger levels are sent in volts, as
TLevel 1.50
Most value-setting commands may be sent without an argument, in which case they
become queries of the associated value.
ADelay
(no argument)
evokes the reply
02.123456789123
which represents the delay setting for the rising edge of the A output in seconds.
Since such long strings of numbers are difficult to read, a "verbose" mode is available,
which will send times and other long numbers in the form
02.123,456,789,123
Certain incoming ASCII characters are treated specially:

All lowercase letters are converted to uppercase

TAB is treated as a space

ETX, ESC, and DEL are equivalent to BS, command line abort.

Colon is translated to semicolon, the command separator

Most other characters, including + - , * ? and linefeed, are ignored.

A "blank" input line, <cr> only, evokes the response
T560 <cr> <lf>
The T560 does not support hardware or software flow control. Other baud rates are
available on special order.
