Command Communication Sequence
When external equipment such as a personal computer gives the command to
the XP37 Xtra/XM37 Xtra, the XP37 Xtra/XM37 Xtra returns an ACK. So make
sure that the external equipment receives this ACK.
The XP37 Xtra/XM37 Xtra returns an ACK if it has received the command
correctly.
If it has not received the command correctly due to data error, it will return
nothing. Therefore, when the external equipment send a command, make
sure that it received the ACK.
