6.1.2 ACK and NACK
Upon reception of an end-of-command character, the command string is evaluated by the LRF Module
and the command execution starts. In case a problem is detected (e.g. an invalid command string), the
command execution is aborted and the NACK character !” is sent. Otherwise, after the successful
completion of a command, the LRF system provides the ACK character “<” to close the command output.

<
ACK : received a valid command
0x3C
!
NACK : received an invalid command
0x21
For each received command, one (and only one) ACK/NACK character is provided by the LRF module.
Such an ACK/NACK character closes the command output of the LRF module. After receiving an
ACK/NACK character, the host system can send a new command to the LRF module.
6.1.3 Timing constraints
No timing constraint exists between consecutive characters of a message: when powered, the
microcontroller is always waiting for a new character from the serial interface.
Due to the use of a UART interface, it is recommended to send only few characters without a pause (e.g.:
2ms) in the transmission. Such a break enables a resynchronization of the bit-latching signal on the
receiver side.
6.2 Operational Commands
Protocol related characters (i.e. ACK “<”, NACK “!”) are not explicitly mentioned in this description.
