THE FUNCTION CODES
This chapter explains the purpose, appearance, and use of the
functional command codes. After you've studied this chapter,
you should be able to make full use of the quick reference chart
provided on the inside back cover of this manual. In addition,
Appendix M provides a listing of the codes, in the same order as
the reference chart, with a short description and decimal (10-base)
and hexidecimal (16-base) equivalents.
The format of these descriptions is as follows:
