Add C2, C4, and C6 to G5 by sending the command [WRC2C4C6G5]. After executing this command, G5 will consist of C2, C4, and C6.
Now add C8 to G5 by sending [WRC8G5]. C8 is added to G5, and G5 is not overwritten. View the contents of G5 by sending [RDG5] and receiving the following feedback:
[G5=C2C4C6C8]
