Data Types
The table below defines the data types and associated type identifiers used in this section.
All values except for IP addresses are transmitted in little endian format (least significant byte first)
unless stated otherwise. The bytes in an IP address "a.b.c.d" will always be transmitted in the order a, b,
c, d (big endian).

Data Types
Commands
The following sections describe the commands available on the Discovery (page 447), Control (page
450), and Upgrade (page 486) channels.
When a client sends a command over the Control or Upgrade channel, the sensor sends a reply whose
identifier is the same as the command's identifier. The identifiers are listed in the tables of each of the
commands.
Status Codes
Each reply on the Discovery, Control, and Upgrade channels contains a status field containing a status
code indicating the result of the command. The following status codes are defined:
