hello.
Note 2: This command will also enable
checksums.
Note 3: Cards are designed to be hot-
swappable. To sync with the start of a
new command, the cards will wait for a
<lf> character before looking for a valid
command.

Retrieves the card's configurable settings.
Each addressable block is represented by
a single line. Dynamic status may be
