Table 6-1 lists the RS-232 command set. The “Parameter (min/max)” column shows the valid
parameter ranges, or “NA” for commands that take no parameters.
When you enter a valid command, the VHD Controller executes it and acknowledges it with a
plus sign on the command line (+ >). When you enter an invalid command – one that is
misspelled or followed by values outside the valid range for that command – the VHD
Controller ignores it and returns a minus sign (- >).
