command group. For example, all RS232 configuration settings are
identified with a Tag of 232.
SubTag

command within the tag group. For example, the SubTag for the
RS232 baud rate is BAD.

The new value for a menu setting, identified by the Tag and SubTag.
Storage
A single character that specifies the storage table to which the
com- mand is applied. An exclamation point (!) performs the
command’s operation on the device’s volatile menu configuration
table. A period (.) performs the command’s operation on the
device’s non-volatile menu configuration table. Use the
non-volatile table only for semi- permanent changes you want
saved through a power cycle.

response uses a dash (-) to indicate a continuous range of values. A
pipe (|) separates items in a list of non-continuous values.)
