7.2 Interface commands

The below described commands will change one of the labelling parameter. The values are not stored and will be lost when turning off power.

If the sequence nnnn is replaced by the character "?" then the current value of that parameter will be returned by the labelling machine as a 4 character string confirming the name of the parameter requested followed by 4 numbers representing the current value of that parameter. The character 04H terminates all return messages.
