Note1: Volume up or down requests increase or decrease volume level by 5
Note 2: Treble and bass commands use hexadecimal values 0-F, default (flat) is 8.
Note3: After ALL Channels Off command an Un-mute must be sent to each channel to
restore a channel volume.
Also, it is best to leave about a ½ second between commands, as some integrators may miss
commands if they are entered too quickly.
All commands also send a message back to the terminal after they have been completed, so that
it is easy to keep track of the previous commands that were sent.
Note: Some commands are read or write only and some are both for example:
Mute All is a write only command and Version is a read only command.
