aa (range 00-FF) represents the 2-character hexadecimal
address of an ADAM-5000 system that is responding.
(data) is the hexadecimal value representing the status of
all digital output channels. A 4-character value repre-
sents the output channels in sequence from 15 thru 0 in
an ADAM-5056 module. A 2-character value represents
the output channels in sequence from 5 thru 0 in an
ADAM-5060 module. And a 2-character value repre-
sents the output channels in sequence from 7 thru
