Basic Command Definitions
‘P’ Power Control
Turn on / off, or toggle the power state of the HDA800(V2):
^P 0$
Turn off power if power is not locked on.
^P 1$
Turn on power.
^P 2$
Turn off power regardless of “locked” state.
^P 3$
Turn on power and lock it on -- only a “P 2” command can turn off power.
^P +$
Toggle power
^P ?$
Query for current setting
Response String:
^=P
n$
Where:
n
= Current power status, 0=Off, 1=On, 3=Locked On. (A value of ‘2’ is never returned.)
The power lock and unlock can be used to keep a controller from turning off the HDA800(V2).
Drivers should be written to only use the “P 0” and “P 1” commands to turn on and off the
HDA800(V2). This allows users to override the driver’s logic by manually issuing the “P 2” and “P 3”
commands.
By issuing a “P 3” command (lock power on), the HDA800(V2) will be turned on, and locked. Only a
subsequent “P 2” command will turn off the HDA800(V2), The “P 0” and “P 1” commands will be
ignored.
