The Equipment reports its Model Number and Software Revision.
6.4 S1F2 - On Line Data (Host to Equipment)
S1F2 * H->E
<L> .
6.5 S1F3 - Selected Status Request
S1F3 W * H-> E
<L
<U4 VID> * Variable ID
...
> .
The Host requests status from the 7AF. The Host sends the VIDs of interest. Several VIDs can be specified if desired.
Normally, only VIDs of class SV (i.e. Status Variables) are used in this message. However, the 7AF allows the Host to
use any VID of class DV, EC, or SV.
If S1F3 contains a zero-length list, then the 7AF will report all variables of class SV, in order by VID.
For compatibility with older Host implementations, the Equipment allows the following alternative form for this message
using an array format:
S1F4 W * H->E
<U4 VID...>.
6.6 S1F4 - Selected Status Data
S1F4 W * H<-E
<L
<V> * Status Variable Value
...
> .
The Equipment returns the Variable Values in the order requested by S1F3. If any VID specified in S1F3 is invalid, the
corresponding V in S1F4 has the following error format:
<L> * V for Invalid VID
6.7 S1F11 - Status Variable Namelist Request
S1F11 W * H->E
<L
<U4 VID> * Status Variable ID
...
>.
The Host format descriptions for the specified Variables. Several VIDs can be specified if desired.
