CHAPTER 4

Performing Advanced Functions

Command is the string representing the original command. It is supplied so that a master can distinguish between the answers it is waiting for, and out-of-band notifications (which may come, for example, over the radio port of a node). As with the ID, the command name must be always supplied.

Result1 Result2 ... ResultN are the result values returned by the remote node. If the ErrResult is not zero, all other possible characters and/or strings until the end of the line may be ignored.

ErrResult shows whether the command was successfully executed. If this value is 0, the command was successfully executed. If this value is other than 0, the command failed. The number may further indicate the error type. (See also “Returned errors list” on page 54.)

The answer string may contain any number of spaces or CR/LF characters between its components; however, after the terminator

(#) no other characters are allowed.
