	ii		returned value		'w' set
			4-digit hex or other decimal (**)		index
00		Module’s Model Number, as decimal (**) integer value (e.g., 9816).
01		Firmware Version, as hex value
		(expressed internally as integer version * 100).
		(e.g. hex ‘0100’ = 256 decimal, means Version 2.56)
02		Power-up Status, as 16-bit hex bit map, bits having the following meaning:
		Bit 0 (LSB): A/D Failure Error.
		Bit 1:	Transducer Re-zero Adjustment (offset) Term Range Error (out-of-
			range values set to 0.0 internally).
		Bit 2:	Transducer Span Adjustment (gain) Term Range Error (out-of-range
			values set to 1.0 internally).
		Bit 3:	Temperature Correction Coefficients Not Present or Out-of-Range (if
			transducer has one or more bad coefficients, all set to 0.0).
		Bit 4:	reserved (for transducer checksum)
		Bit 5:	FLASH Initialized Data Section Checksum Error (if error, all data
			variables set to factory defaults and stored in FLASH).
		Bit 6:	SRAM Error.
		Bit 7:	Error Reading External DHs.
