activation of the RTS and the DTR signals;
- deactivation (turn off) of the main power supply and return to the Low Energy (waiting) mode using a
serial command OFF;
- change of the Operate / Stand-by mode; this and next serial commands are accessible only when the
main power supply is running;
- change of the receive / transmit (RX/TX) mode;
