Within a Serial Command
To enter control characters within a serial command, hold down the con-
trol key while typing the desired character.

Control characters entered on the command line are displayed in the
menu as mnemonic characters, such as: <CR><LF><NUL><NUL>
To enter a control character from within an embedded menu, first type in
a space (with the space key). This has the effect of allowing the control
key to be recognized as a part of the control character. Next hold down
the control key while typing the desired character.
