Parameter Value: In this case, an integer specifying

the material to make active for the process. Integers

are 4 bytes, low to high.

Checksum: 1 byte, hex sum of complete message

exluding length characters. In this case, 55+50+

01+01+01+03+00+00+00 = AB. Be sure to add in hex.

ASCII UP: This is the Command Group

byte, specifying the category of the

command (Update Process in this case).

Checksum: 1 byte, hex sum of complete message excluding

length characters. In this case, 00+39+06 = 3F, so the

checksum shown is 3F. Be sure to add in hex.

Timer Tick: Increments 10

times/second.

CCB: 00 Indicates no errors in the

command packet.

Length character: Hex number of bytes in

the message excluding length character and

checksum. In this case, the message

consists of 3 bytes (00,39,06). The low end

of the length character is first, followed by

the high end (00 in this case). Remember to

count in hex.

ASCII <ACK>, acknowledges a

good command.

Length character: Hex number of bytes in

the message excluding length character and

checksum. In this case, the message

consists of 9 bytes (55,50, . . . 00,00). The

low end of the length character is first,

followed by the high end (00 in this case).

Remember to count in hex.
