DATA FORMAT:
4.1 GENERAL:
! When data is transmitted it is always bracketed with the ‘{‘ and ‘}’ characters.
! The separation character ‘|’ (7CH) is used to separate data in a string.
! All DLR recalled data has leading zero suppression with the zeros transmitted as spaces.
! All data entered into the DLR can have leading zero suppression with the zeros transmitted
as spaces but is not required.
! Summary of data formats:

RESPONSE:
! In the print/port 1/duplex setup the response by the DLR from the direct commands and data entry
commands can be selected for ‘None’ or Echo’.
‘None’: no response is given a direct cmd (D) or data entry cmd (E) if valid or invalid.
‘Echo’: the command (direct or entry) is echoed as received if valid; the start of transmission
character is returned with a ‘:’ not the ‘*’ character. If invalid a _NAK_ is returned
‘Ack/Nak’: instead of echoing back the received command code and entered data the DLR
responds with ‘ACK’ (41H, 43H & 48H) in place of the code. If an error in received data is
detected the DLR responds with ‘NAK’(4EH, 41H & 48H).
Ack response: :ACK
Nak response: :NAK
! An invalid input consists of the following:
♦
Parity error.
♦
Check error if enabled.
♦
Invalid command code.
♦
Invalid data format.
Response in Echo or Ack/Nak mode = :NAK
