PROTOCOL FORMAT
The EMO-1005 protocol format follows OPTOMUX by the OPTO-22 company.
The EMO-1005 is treated as a smart front end and the host communication is always initiated by
the host computer.
The following are basic commands and answers.
Reading a channel with the host computer:
>03K0F3403XXcr
^.............. start of text always the > sign
^^............ channel address number (00 through FF)
^........... read command is K (J is write)
^^^^......address that should be read 0000-FFFF
^^..... how many bytes to be read 00 through 0D
^^...checksum for the string 03K0F3403
^.. carriage return (decimal 13)
Answer back from the channel would look like this:
A03FF89XXcr
^.............. every answer back starts with an A
^^............ low byte (at address 0F34)
^^.......... next byte (at address 0F35)
^^........next byte (at address 0F36)
^^......checksum for the string 03FF89
^^....carriage return
