A "%" (ASCII code: 16#25) or "<" (ASCII code: 16#3C) must be at the beginning of a message. The response
must start with the same start code as the command.

Station number
The station number of the slave that processed the command is stored here.

The content of this varies depending on the type of command. The value should be read based on the
content. If the processing is not completed successfully, an error code will be stored here, so that the content
of the error can be checked.

Check code
Hexadecimal block check code (BCC) for error detection using horizontal parity. The BCC starts from the
header and checks each character in sequence, using the exclusive OR operation, and replaces the final
result with character text.

" (ASCII code: 16#0D) at the end of the message.
