Positive ACK Message Syntax
The Positive ACK message is sent by the server back to the Efficia CM Series monitor. It
acknowledges that the message was received and validated.
Positive ACK Message Segments
The following table describes the segments within the ACK message.
The following syntax message information represents the profile for the receiver. Any
message segment not supported is ignored. RE elements (required, but can be empty)
will be used, if valid, but ignored otherwise.
Note — Each message segment consists of a variable number of lines, each ending with
a carriage return character. In the examples, long lines are broken for display
purposes, and the carriage return character is indicated by <CR>.
