(description of the command functions)
Some of the commands take an input parameter in order to enable or disable a parti-
cular function; in this case either codes 00hex and 01hex or ASCII character 0 and 1
(30hex and 31hex) can be used.
Commands are executed immediately after they have been received; it should be kept
in mind, however, should the input buffer not be empty, the incoming commands will
be appended to the buffer queue and will be executed only after the preceding charac-
ters are printed.
