• baud rate 57600
• data formatting 8/n/1
• hardware handshake
Manufacturer-provided software initiates the communication with the device
with the following commands (presumably to probe different device types in
the future):
: clear any pending command
:r1c returns :r1c323 (current observed firmware 3.23)
:r2c
returns :r2c015 (last digits of P/N?)
:r0c
returns :r0c52A (model #? 5200A?)
If you get an echo of <CRLF>### that probably is an error indication
Cmd Description Returns Notes
