7.2.3 Command/Response

The command/response portion of the message contains a variable length character
sequence, which conveys command and response data. If a KST-2000L receives a
message addressed to it, which does not match the established protocol or can not be
implemented, a negative acknowledgement message is sent in response. This message is:

>add/?ER2_INVALID PARAMETER'cr''lf']

(error message for a recognized command which cannot be

implemented or has parameters which are out of range)


>add/?ER3_UNRECOGNIZABLE COMMAND'cr''lf']

(error message for unrecognizable command or bad command

syntax)

>add/?ER4_CONVERTER IN LOCK MODE'cr''lf']

(controller in LOCK mode, must go to ENABLE mode first or user

is directing redundancy commands to the offline unit)


>add/?ER5_NOT SUPPORTED BY

HARDWARE'cr''lf']

(the command is a legal command but it is not supported by the

current hardware configuration)

>add/?ER9_HARDWARE NOT OPERABLE'cr''lf']

(This error is issued when hardware prevented the system from

carrying out the users remote command request.)

7.2.4 End Character

Each message is ended with a single character which signals the end of the message:

• “cr”

Carriage return character for commands

• “]”

End bracket for responses
