Start of transmission.
Corresponds to the character STX of ASCII code (0x02).
The Source Address range is from “00” to “99”.
The factory setting for Robot Address is “00”.
The Target Address range is from “00” to “99”.
Factory settings for JBC devices are as follows:
· Soldering Stations Address is “01”
· Solder Feeder Address is “10”

Composed of five digits. First tens of thousand is sent and thereafter
successively until the last unit.
Example: in order to send “12345” it is first sent “1”, and finally “5”.
If it is a negative number, the minus sign is at the tens of thousands
digit, shown as an ASCII character “-”.
Example: In order to send “-50”, the data will be sent is “-0050”.
If the number has less than five digits, then zeros will be placed before.
Example: in order to send “375” the data will be sent is “00375”.
End of transmission.
Corresponds to the ASCII code character ETX (0x03).
