Command Response Conventions
Like the MPRR commands, responses are preceded by the # character. Many MPRR
commands respond with #Done or #Error indicating the command was or was not
recognized and completed. Other commands respond with a four-character identifier
followed by one or more values.

shows an example of a command/reply sequence. This example assumes
that an MPRR with serial number SN97001P running version X.XX software is con-
nected to a PC running a terminal emulation software package such as Windows
Hyper Terminal or Procomm Plus. The command sequence verifies that communica-
tions are working correctly.

In command discussions, MPRR response characters may be shown in brackets < >.
The use of brackets indicates that the response is a value in the range of characters.
The brackets are not part of the response. For example, the response to command
#520

Display Power Fail Bit is either a 0 or a 1. In the command discussion, the
response is shown as:
#PWRB <0-1>
with actual MPRR response being one of the following:
#PWRB 0
#PWRB 1
In this example, PWRB is the four-character identifier for power fail bit, and the 0 or 1
is the value. All spaces shown in the response are actual spaces sent from the MPRR.
In this example, one space is between the letter B and the number.

In this example, one space is between the letter B and the number.
Operating Parameters
The MPRRs maintain their operating parameters in non-volatile memory (NVRAM)
so that the parameters are preserved after a power-down sequence.
