MAX. Examples: 273, 27.3, 2.73E+02, MAX.
MIN and MAX are the minimum and maximum limit values

<NDN> Non-decimal numeric value. May also be represented in binary
preceded by “#B”, octal preceded by “#Q”, or hexadecimal
preceded by “#H”. Examples: 29 (decimal), #B11101 (binary),
#Q35 (octal), #H1D (hexadecimal)
<Bool> Boolean data. Can be numeric (0, 1), or named (OFF, ON).
<SPD> String program data. Programs string parameters enclosed in
single or double quotes.
<CPD> Character program data. Programs discrete parameters.
Accepts both short form and long form.
<SRD> String response data. Returns string parameters enclosed in
single or double quotes.
<CRD> Character response data. Returns discrete parameters. Only the
short form of the parameter is returned.
<AARD> Arbitrary ASCII response data. Permits the return of
un-delimited 7-bit ASCII. This data type has an implied
message terminator.
<Block> Arbitrary block response data. Permits the return of definite
length and indefinite length arbitrary response data. This data
type has an implied message terminator.
<Expr> Channel list, group list, or math expression.
Channel list: Parenthetical data beginning with “@”
Group list: Parenthetical data beginning with “@”
Math expression: Parenthetical math expression (see
