Exchanges from a controller to the recorder are made as messages made of a chain of ASCII characters (and possibly of binary octets) with a message termination at the end.

  • Page 100: Formats Of Emission Messages

    Ethernet Interface A header chain always starts with an alphabetic character. It may be preceded by a colon ":" (compound header) or end by a question mark "?" (query message). Query messages must be followed by the termination. - Header separator: One or several ASCII characters (0 to 32, decimal except 10 and 13).
