For example:
$1B = (1*16) + 11 = 27
Number codes for these special characters are shown in hexadecimal (hex) form
(i.e., base 16). They can be entered either in decimal or in hex. Permissible val
-
ues are shown in HEX: for example (n = $00 - $FF).
Note: Setting a function character to zero ($00) disables that function.

See the ASCII Chart at end of this manual for a listing of ASCII codes for all
alphanumeric characters, including A to Z and 0 to 9, and conversions between
hex and decimal representations.
Several parameters are ASCII numerical values for characters which perform
special functions. Most of these special function characters have “control charac-
ters” as default values. Control characters are entered by holding down a special
control key (normally marked “Ctrl”) on the keyboard while typing the indicated
key. For example, to enter a <Ctrl+X>, hold down the Control key while typing
an X, then release both keys.
+ These special characters cannot be sent in a packet unless preceded by the pass
character (see the PASS command) or unless you are operating in the Transparent
Mode.
If a streamswitch (STREAMSW) character or any other special character is defined
as “$” then you will need to enter values in decimal, or precede the $ with the PASS
character in order to enter hex numbers.
flags ChoiceA|ChoiceB
Many parameters are “flags”, meaning they have two possible values, ON and
OFF, or YES and NO. All of the command descriptions show ON and OFF as the
options; however YES (Y) and NO (N) may be typed instead. A few parameters
are really flags, but rather than indicating that something is “on” or “off”, they
select one of two ways of doing things. Some of these parameters have the values
EVERY or AFTER indicating operating modes for data transmission.
The possible choices are separated by a vertical bar. Some of the flag parameters
will allow many choices, such as ON|OFF|TO|FROM.
