The format of the comm data output is as follows. This data output is compatible with the
SL40 for sending frequency data to the comm.
Baud rate: ..........................................9600
Data bits: ...........................................8
Stop bits: ...........................................1
Parity: ................................................none
Output rate: .......................................approx 2 seconds
Message length: ................................variable, approx 83 to 484 characters
The comm data is output using the following format.
$PMRRC<msg_id><msg_data><chksum><cr>
The checksum is computed by an 8 bit addition of the msg_id and msg_data characters,
ignoring carry if any. The resulting 8 bit checksum is converted to two ascii characters by
taking the upper and lower nibbles, adding 30h to each, and placing the most significant
character first in the data message.
Airport Ident Output
This message is used to output the selected airport ident.
Message Format
$PMRRC04tiiii<chksum><cr>
04 .......message id
t ..........list type, outputs a 1
iiii.......ident, four character ascii
