Responses sent from the follower to the initiator shall have the following format:
(u;www:x=z) [CR] [LF]
Where:
●‘(‘ and ‘)’ indicate the start and end of the command data. If these characters are present,
the command processor shall assume that “valid” command data is present in the command
string. If these characters are not present in the command, the command processor shall
assume the data is not valid command data and ignore it.
●“u;” indicates the response code. This is only used by followers responding to a valid
command received. For any response code other than 0, the follower shall echo back the
command received rather than filling in the fields listed below. The following response codes
can be used:
o0 = Command successfully processed
o1 = Unknown command code
o2 = Invalid operator
o3 = Destination parameter not supported
o4 = Setting not available
o5 = Setting value not available
o6 = Setting value not supported
o7 = String too long
o8 = Command not supported in standby mode
o9 = Invalid parameter
o10 = Error processing command
o11 = Password not entered
●“www” indicates the command code sent by the follower. This field is case insensitive (i.e.
“PWR”, “pwr” and “PwR” should all be treated as “PWR”).
●“:x” is the destination parameter. This is an optional parameter that indicates which memory
the response is referencing. This parameter is reserved and shall not be used at this time.
●“z” is the new value (for set/increment/decrement commands) or the current value (for get
commands) for this parameter. It can have one of two formats:
●Integer value: Any positive or negative number (example: 100)
●String value: Any string surrounded by double quotes (example: “This is a string”)
●“[CR]” is the ASCII carriage return key (0x0D).
●“[LF]” is the ASCII line feed character (0x0A).
