18 Parameter Operations
There are two parameter operations: Individual Parameter Transfer and Individual Parameter Request.
A single session is concluded when this Model sends an IPC (Individual Parameter Change) in response to an IPR (Individual Parameter Request) from an external device, or when an IPC is sent by an external device or this Model on its own (not in response to an IPR). Receipt of an IPC by this Model causes the corresponding parameter to be changed.
An Individual Parameter Change can also be used to issue some command to this Model, and the Individual Parameter Request can be used to check this Model's status information.
