3) Setting commands

These commands are used to set AR-3000 parameters from the external device.

4) Request commands

This command causes the AR-3000 to output the status of its current settings. When a Request command is transmitted to the AR-3000, the AR-3000 will transmit the requested contents as the Setting output command. In this case, an ACK will not be returned. However for the AC and AQ commands, an ACK will be output. If the command was not correct, an ER command will be returned.

5) Reply commands

Reply commands are necessary for communication control, for example to notify that a command was received correctly.
