The ʻEcho ONʼ command will turn on a special mode that will cause all
the other serial port commands to echo on the selected card. This used
when you are setting up serial commands so you can verify all the com-
mands you are issuing are being received correctly. In the following exam-
ples, the ʻechoʼ responses are shown in bold italics:
If you send “a00”, on the card addressed at 00h the echo mode will be
turned ON:
“card __0, echo mode”
If you send “*03A” to request a specific show on all cards:
“card __0, requested show __3 ShowName3”
If you send “t00A” to start the requested show playing on a specific card:
“card __0, starting show __3 ShowName3”
If you send “!00A” to start a show looping on a specific card:
“card __0, looping show __4 ShowName4”
If you send “uA” to stop all shows playing on all cards:
“card __0, stopped show __5 ShowName5”
Error messages will be returned whenever you ask the card to do some-
thing that it cannot do at the current time.
The ʻEcho OFFʼ command turn off the echo mode on all the cards in the
system. It does not echo anything.
