presented. For example, possible values of the parameter “n” are defined as
“(n = 1 - 255)”.
The Line Below the Command Definition
If commands have parameters, default values are shown on the line below the
command definition.
Some KAM’98 commands take effect immediately, so they are called “immedi
-
ate” commands (e.g., K means “switch to CONVERSE mode"). This will be
stated on the second line. For example, the command to go to CONVERS mode
says “immediate” on the second line.
More Information on Commands
Each command is explained in detail and examples are given where appropriate.
Following the explanation of the command, there may be a “See also” list that
shows related commands.
Parameter Types
Almost all parameters are of one of the following types (exceptions are discussed
when they are encountered in the command listing).
n (range)
Any number within the range is permissible. The unit of measure (seconds, ms,
baud, count, etc.) for the number will be given in the description. These are deci
-
mal numbers.
n ($00 - $FF)
Special functions: Some parameters are used to control special functions, such as
specifying the character to use to enter the Command mode from the Convers
mode or specifying the character to use for “backslash”. Possible values and de
-
fault values for these parameters are shown in HEX format.
The “digits” of a hex number represent powers of 16, analogous to the powers of
10 represented by a decimal number. The decimal numbers 10 through 15 are
represented in hex by the letters A through F (e.g., decimal 10 is hex A). And a
hex number is distinguished from a decimal number by preceding it with a “$”
prefix.
