6.[…S] – Save

This command will save the configuration command being sent in memory. When sending the command [ON1C4S], after reset or power up, output 1 on C4 will be enabled.

7.[…F] – Feedback

After processing a command, an OK or ER will be returned as feedback if "F" is included at the end of a command string.

8.[…P] – Path

This command will set the path for the output, but it is not active until the switch command, [SW], is executed. Commands ending in "P" are not executed immediately. The path for outputs on multiple cards or the same card can be loaded. See examples in ON and OFF commands.

The system will return feedback as OK if the unit ID is zero.
