32.3 Reading from the serial port
By default data received on the serial port is ignored. This can be changed to make MagicQ accept remote
commands received on the serial port. In the View Settings view of the Setup Window, set the serial input
type to “ChamSys Serial Remote”.
ChamSys Serial Remote protocol consists of simple commands consisting of a list parameter values
separated by commas ‘,’ and ending in a character A to Z (or a to z). Commands can contain spaces, tabs,
and carriage returns; they are all ignored. See the section on ChamSys Remote Protocol for further
details.
