any
information; each message is enclosed in a frame, which consists of the \
following:
...
where:
= , i.e. ASCII characters [1Bh] and [24h].
= 3 ASCII characters each of which ranging from [30h] to [39h], which are \
used as monitor address.
= An ASCII character that identifies the command type selected among
the list below:
[47h] = Geometry Group
[4Dh] = Miscellaneous Group
[50h] = Picture Group
[41h] = Audio Group
[44h] = Debug Group(Reserved)
= Two ASCII characters (ranging from [30h] to [39h], i.e. digits to
, and from [41h] to [5Ah]), i.e. letters to ), defining the
command.
... = Two ASCII characters (ranging from [30h] to [39h], i.e. digits to
, and from [41h] to [46h]), i.e. letters to ), representing the
hex value of the data, or one ASCII characters when data are text
strings.
Write commands may become a request for the current value when
only = (i.e. [3Fh]) is sent.
= , i.e. the ASCII character [3Bh].
3.2.4 Acknowledge to general sequence: frame format
Once the monitor has received a general command sequence, it returns a m\
essage that
is one of the following when no data are expected as part of the answerb\
ack:
In case data are expected, then the message becomes:

3.3 Available Commands
Note:
1. Write commands may become a request for the current value when only
= (i.e. [3Fh]) is sent.
2. A character means a “don’t care” value in this section.
3. There is an availability table attached to each command. See the followi\
ng table.
(1) Each gray shaded cell in the table means the source is not available for the
corresponding model. “TV TUNER” input is not available in BASIC model for
example.
(2) A dot, ‘•‘, means the command is available for the corresponding source and
model. For instance, the command is available in EXT input, PAL model.
