Using the command/response tables
The command/response tables on the next page list valid command ASCII codes, the scaler’s responses to the host, and a description of the command’s function or the results of executing the command. Except when setting audio gain/ attenuation, detail, and sharpness, upper and lower case characters may be used interchangeably in the command field.
The ASCII to HEX conversion table at left is for use with the command/response tables.
