End Of Packet

•
Controller-to-Target: This is the 'Carriage Return' character (ASCII code 13).
•
Target-to-Controller: This is the two-character sequence 'Carriage Return', 'Line Feed' (ASCII codes 13 and 10). Both indicate
the valid termination of a packet.
Serial Remote Control
If a message was sent via a local modem to a distant end device or ODU, the message was transmitted transparently through the
local modem. In the event of the distant-end device not responding, the local modem would generate a response.
EXAMPLE: 0001/RET~ (indicating that it had finished waiting for a response and was now ready for further comms).
If the Controller sends a correctly formatted command BUT the modem is in Ethernet Remote mode, it will not allow reconfiguration,
and will respond with TFQ^.
