In contrast with previous versions of Radia dimmers, Radia Eclipse dimmers accept both upper- and lower-case strings

All string responses are preceded with a single byte 12 ($0C in HEX or ASCII character '?') and followed by a carriage return (13 or hex $0D), line feed (10 or hex $0A), and a question mark '?' (63 or hex $3F).

All invalid strings will generate the error string 'ERROR! PLEASE RE-ENTER' followed by the BEL character (7), carriage return (13 or hex $0D), line feed (10 or hex $0A), and a question mark '?' (63 or hex $3F).
