Diagnostic Read

This command reads up to 244 bytes of data from the PROM or RAM of
the station interface module. You can use it to read the module’s
diagnostic timers and counters. Except for the PLC-5, you must use the
diagnostic status command to obtain the starting address of the diagnostic
counters. The PLC-5 doesn’t require that this address be specified,
though you must include a dummy value in the ADDR field, which the
PLC-5 will ignore.
