Message type: This parameter indicates how incoming text will be parsed to build
messages. In order to match most existing protocol, two different incoming message
types are handled (Figure 30).
◦ Fixed-length messages: All messages are always expected to be the same length.
The user has to provide the message length parameter.
◦ End of Line Byte message: All messages are expected to have a special "magic"
character to indicate the end of message. This type matches most text-based
protocol with an end of line character (\n) to validate the entry. The user has to
provide the end of message "magic" character. Multiple character sequence is not
supported (e.g., \r\n). Note that the "magic" character will NOT be part of the
message sent to the playback engine.
