If it is sent during other than track divide rehearsal, sometimes it may
cause malfunction.
MDS sends out “DIVIDE POINT DATA” one by one whenever the value
changes even when the point to be divided is changed much at once.
As another command cannot be accepted until the value is renewed to
a specified one completely, first check if “DIVIDE POINT DATA”s of
change times are sent or not, then send the next command.
Track cannot be divided just after beginning and before ending of the
track.
Therefore, sometimes the Position value does not change up to the
specified value if the absolute value of it is large. In this case, “DIVIDE
POINT DATA”s of actual change times are sent.
Example of transmission packet:
Move the point to be divided to the two frames back.
