EXAMPLE 2
Multiple commands reading for registers (command 3, h03 hexadecimal).
Assuming that we wish to read the gross weight value (e.g.: 4000) and net weight value (e.g.: 3000),
reading from address 40008 to address 40011 must be performed by sending the following string:
h01 h03 h00 h07 h00 h04 hF5 hC8
The instrument will respond with the string:
h01 h03 h08 h00 h00 h0F hA0 h00 h00 h0B hB8 h12 h73
