Concatenating Serial Commands
You can concatenate (add together) commands to a single address in a sin-
gle string or data block to a maximum of 127 characters to a concentrator or
64 characters to a decoder.
For example,
51<Ki66><Kh88><Ko0><B>CR
changes Host Intercharacter
Timeout to 66 ms, Host Turnaround Timeout to 88 ms, disables Auxiliary
Port, and resets and clears the data buffers. See “Multiple Select Com-
mands” on page 2-6.
You cannot send a command (single or concatenated) to more than one
address. For this, you must use separate command strings and conform to
the Intercharacter Timeout setting.
