card 00h/__0, looping show 04h/__4 FRUTCAKE
If you send “u” to stop a show playing:
card 00h/__0, stopped show 05h/__5 IGETARND
If you send “u” to stop a card that is already stopped, it will give
you an error message:
card 00h/__0, error: not playing or looping 05h/__5 IGETARND
Similar error messages will be returned whenever you ask the card
to do something that it can not do at the current time.
The ‘Echo OFF’ command will turn off the echo mode on all
the cards in the system.
