-

After receiving the break and the command, the addressed sensor
sets the data line to marking at 8.33 milliseconds and then sends the
response (tolerance: -0.40 milliseconds.) The start bit of the first
response byte must start within 15 milliseconds after the stop bit of
the last byte of the command (tolerance: +0.40 milliseconds).

-

After a sensor transmits the last character of a response, it must
relinquish control of the data line within 7.5 milliseconds
(tolerance: +0.40 milliseconds.)

-

No more than 1.66 milliseconds of marking are allowed between
the end of the stop bit and the start bit (for example between
characters) on any characters in the command or the response (no
tolerance.) This permits a response to an M command to be sent
within a 380-millisecond window.

-

Sensors must return to a low-power standby mode after receiving
an invalid address or after detecting a marking state on the data line
for 100 milliseconds (tolerance: +0.40 milliseconds).

-

When a recorder addresses a different sensor, or if the data line has
been in the marking state for more than 87 milliseconds, the next
command must be preceded by a break.

NOTE

The low-power standby mode, in addition to being a low-power
consumption state, is a protocol state and a break is required to leave
that state.
