NOTE: Each “channel control code” pair of bytes has the capability to
indicate multiple channels since each channel indication has a unique
bit position which is either ON =1 or OFF = 0.
NOTE: Since LF is not recognized during EVFU loading, filler codes are used
to tab the required number of vertical lines.
