The specifics and mechanics of the various packet pieces are described in
the subsequent sections.
2.1. MIDI System Exclusive Packet Head
Several data bytes define the “SysEx Packet Head.” Among these are
the standard “Start of Exclusive” also known as SOX, a standard MIDI
Manufacturer’s ID assigned by the MIDI Manufacturers Association (MMA)
and Aviom proprietary product and message type identification. SysEx
messages that contain incorrect or unknown ID information or unsupported
message types are ignored by the A‑16R without generating error indications.
The MIDI SysEx packet head of an A‑16R SysEx packet is described below.
