3.1. Command Structure
3.1.1. Command Mnemonics
Commands use ASCII English letters/numbers and consist of two characters. No distinction is made between
capital and small letters.
3.1.2. Arguments
Arguments are added to commands to specify title or chapter numbers, etc. Arguments consist of ASCII English
letters/numbers and are placed in front of the command. If a command requiring an argument has no argument,
an error occurs.
Address (adrs) :
Addresses consist of ASCII numbers and express the title number/chapter number/track number/time code.
The address mode is specified with the Title/Chapter/Track/Time command.
Argument (arg) :
Arguments consist of ASCII English letters/numbers and express command parameters with arguments other
than addresses.
3.1.3. Command String Termination
When the <CR> code is received, the command terminates.
3.1.4. Command String Buffer Number
A command string is a group of multiple commands. When commands are received, a command string with a
maximum of 32 characters is buffered. Characters beyond the 32nd character are ignored.
【Ex.】
TM2000SE2300PL<CR>
3.2. Command Processing
Buffered commands are extracted and processed sequentially.
If the received command string includes <SPACE> or <LF> (line feed), it is ignored.
If an error is generated, subsequent commands are not executed.
3.2.1. Completed Status
The completed status used with "Auto status" is expressed with an "R".
【Ex.】
R<CR>
