E.2.4 Measurement Range Setting and Query
All transmissions from and to the controller are terminated with the ASCII
character LF (Line Feed) i.e. decimal 10, hexadecimal 0x0a. In the examples
given here, this character is described with the escape sequence "\n"
according to its presentation in the programming language C.
Invalid settings are ignored.

VELO2\n
If an OVD-01 is installed, the measurement range is set to
25
.
VELO7\n
If an OVD-02 is installed, this velocity decoder is selected and
the measurement range is set to 25
.
VELO?\n
As an answer, a string with the number of the velocity
measurement range set is returned.
If the measurement range 25
of the OVD-02 is selected,
the controller returns the string "7\n".
