All string values are in ASCII format including decimal points and colons where
needed.
Example: To instruct the controller to send the layer number value, the computer
would send:
Chr$(255)+Chr$(254)+Chr$(1)+Chr$(39)+Chr$(1)+Chr$(5)+Chr$(210)
The 370 will return the layer number as a three byte string.

Instructs the controller to either enable or disable the MDC-370's front panel keys
based on the value received. A value of 255 disables the keys. Any other value
will enable the keys.
