Values of n: 0 ,
<character> can be one of 128 ASCII characters
The <n> value tells the decoder how many characters after the A to load into
the reader address buffer.
Note: This escape sequence cannot be concatenated.
Reader Address Example
To assign an address of 3 to your decoder, send the following escape
sequence:
Esc – y 1 A 3
The good read beep sounds upon a successful completion of a decode. As
the range of <n> increases, so does the frequency of the tone. Setting the
tone to zero will disable the beep.
