A.3.5.7.5 Bulk Consolidated Status Faults
This command causes all switch fault status to be returned. To reduce the length of the
response, fault status is embedded into the bit structure of the characters that are
returned. Faults are indicated by a binary 1 in the designated bit position.
Command: <add/BCSF_”cr”
Response: >add/BCSF_”a””b””c”...”x””y””z””aa””ab””ac””ad””ae””cr””lf”]
