7.2.2 Packet Structure
The exchange of information is transmitted, Controller-to-Target and Target-to-Controller, in ‘packets’. Each packet contains a finite
number of bytes consisting of printable ASCII characters, excluding ASCII code 127 (DELETE).
In this context, the Carriage Return and Line Feed characters are considered printable. With one exception, all messages from Controller-
to-Target require a response – this will be either to return data that has been requested by the Controller, or to acknowledge reception of an
instruction to change the configuration of the Target.
