(XX=ASCII code: symbols, numbers, upper-
case letters)
[command]:
This is the command identifier (3 bytes).
A 3-byte identifier (ASCII code: symbols,
numbers, upper-case letters) is sent as the
command.
[:]
The colon is the code serving as a delimiter
between the command and data.
[data]:
Data (ASCII code: symbols, numbers, upper-
case letters) can be added in the number of
bytes required.
Outline of procedure for sending data from
controller
1
The send command starts with STX (start of
text = 02h).
The command is then identified
by COMMAND which follows, and the data is
added as required.
The command ends with ETX (end of text =
03h).
2
When a different command is to be sent, a
response is awaited from the VTR, and then
the command is sent.
(See page 124.)
3
If STX is sent again before ETX is sent, the
receive data buffer inside the VTR is cleared.
A command error is returned to the
controller, and the data is newly processed
with STX which was received again at the
head.
