Command Name
A command name is defined using two alphabet characters.
Parameters
• Command parameters.
• Parameters are specified using alphabet characters or numeric values.
• Each parameter is separated by a delimiter (comma).
• A numeric value is specified using an integer.
• If the parameter is a numeric value, the valid range of the value varies depending on
the command.
• Spaces before and after a parameter are discarded. (However, spaces are significant
in a parameter (unit) specified using an ASCII character string.) In the examples given
in this manual, spaces are not used.

However, delimiters cannot be omitted.
Example SR001,,2V

those delimiters can be omitted.
