Command or Query.
EDMAC Slave Address Range - sets the range of addresses of distant-
end units (modems or transceivers) for which this unit, as the Master,
will forward messages. Only values which are integer multiples of ten
are permitted. (0010, 0020, 0030, 0040 etc.)
Example: ESA=0090
This command is only valid for an EDMAC master. When used as a
Query, it may be sent to an EDMAC slave, which will respond with the
appropriate address.
