The HI-61XX Series Field Probe responds to commands from another device; it
transmits no data without first receiving instructions to do so.
C OMMAND S TRUCTURE
See the following pages for detailed information regarding the command
structure to the Field Probe. When the Field Probe completes the command, it
responds with a string consisting of:
 A start character (":")
 The command letter
 Data (if required)
 (a carriage return)
If the command does not require the probe to return any data, the probe simply
responds with the start character (":") then the command letter and a carriage
return. If an error occurs, the Field Probe responds with an error code.
