Command only.
Resets internal pointer to allow RNE? queries to start at the beginning of the
stored events log. This command takes no arguments.
EXAMPLE: <0001/IEP={CR}

Software Image
IMG=
IMG?
1 byte
Command or Query.
Sets or returns the Current Active Software Image in the form x, where:
1=Bulk Image # 1 currently active
2=Bulk Image # 2 currently active
COMMAND EXAMPLE: <0001/IMG=1{CR} (instructs the unit to load firmware
from image #1 at the next reset / power up).
QUERY EXAMPLE: <0001/IMG?{CR} (queries the image number that the
firmware loaded during bootup)
NOTE: If you send the IMG command and then query the IMG value, the numbers
may not be equal because the command tells the firmware which image to boot from
at the next bootup, while the query reports the image that the firmware booted from
on the previous bootup.
