This command must be the last in a series of commands. For example, the following would be a typical multi-command statement:

@C0@1,1,0,Swipe Card@M! U1 MCR 80 T2 (CR)(LF)(EOT)

where CR is ASCII 13

LF is ASCII 10

EOT is ASCII4

The statement causes the RF Terminal to transmit the string "!U1 MCR 80 T2 CR LF" to the Cameo printer. The printer then wakes up and blinks to indicate the magstripe input is ready to be swiped; when the swipe is complete, the Terminal sends back the data to the host computer as:

ID+T2:Data on Card+CR (the printer's CR LF stuff is stripped)

If the request is for Track 1 and Track 2, the data sent back is

ID+T1:data on 1+T2:data on 2+CR

Every statement must end with a data entry “prompt” command, whether the statement is a single command by itself or several commands combined together. Any illegal statement will be ignored as a command but will be displayed on the addressed RF Terminal display exactly as written. If no Terminal ID was included in the statement, it will try to display the invalid statement on ID 0. Once the ENTER key is pressed on the Terminal displaying the invalid statement, the terminal sends the Base Station a “?” character. The Base Station then in turn sends the message n?CR (where n is the Terminal ID and CR is a carriage return) back to the Host computer.

The “Clear lines” command (@Cx) for the 4 line displays differ slightly from the “Clear lines” command for the current 6 line displays.
