Parameter blocks may be null (contain no parameters), or contain one or more
parameters. Two colons occur next to each other if a parameter block is null.
Multiple parameters in a parameter block are separated by commas. Two commas
occur next to each other if a parameter is null.
Entering a semicolon at the end of the command indicates that the command
statement is completed to the interpreter, and executes the command.

Command Format
Response Format
When a command is received and processed, a response is returned. All responses
include a source identifier (<sid>), the date, the time, an M to indicate that it is a
response to a command, and the correlation tag (<ctag>) that was entered with the
command.
Figure 4-2
shows the completed response format. COMPLD indicates that the
command was completed without error.
Note: If the command was a query, additional information would be
displayed before the semicolon.

Figure 4-3
shows the denied response format. DENY indicates that the command
was denied due to an error. The <errcde> parameter indicates the corresponding
error type, or cause of the error.
