Once the TIRIS reader has received the command character Y it echoes it to the PC
in order to indicate that the TIRIS reader is ready to receive a parameter (range: 0 to
F) specifying the logic output level. Once the command has been executed the TIRIS
reader sends carriage return and line feed back to the PC.
Example:

COMBINED Commands - SET OUTPUT & GET I/O Status
This command combines and extends the I/O STATUS command (2.3.5) and SET
OUTPUTS command (2.3.6). Once the TIRIS reader has received the command
character H it echoes it to the PC in order to indicate that the TIRIS reader is ready
to receive further parameters specifying the operation to the I/O ports.
