4.6.1.5 Executing Commands
• Because all commands are executed according to the program order, if a command is sent while the
previous command is being executed, the command must wait until the execution of the previous
command is complete.
• Each command must be 64 characters or less.
• Invalid commands cause errors and cannot be executed.
• Even if many commands, one of which contains an error, are sent, all commands before the error can
be executed.
All commands after the error are ignored.

* By performing the following operations, this instrument can be returned to the local condition and the
keys can be used.
