Command List - Promax MO-160 Manual De Usuario

Commands should always be sent in capital letters and cannot be edited online,
i.e., once a character is received it is stored in the MO-16X serial buffer and cannot be
corrected by sending an erase code.
In communication idle mode (MO-16X waiting for a command) the modulator will
send an XON code once per second to allow synchronisation with the remote controller.

Command list

Commands are classified between interrogative and control commands. They are
initiated by sending an '*' character, and have ASCII text format and always share a
similar structure. For instance, the equipment model name can be asked by sending
"*?NA<cr>" and the answer is "*NAMO-160" (always without quotes) Some amount of
parsing must be applied, to recover the wanted data from the answer text (in this case,
"MO-160").
Here follows a table with all available commands.
