All status outputs are suspended during the receiving and processing of a command string. In this way, a command which expects a response (ala $RSC:) can be assured the next string sent back by the regulator is the response to the requesting command (though one should still do error checking and validation, as the simple regulator will often ignore commands containing a syntax error in them) Formats are in clear ASCII using comma separated fields. Note the presence of double commas (separated by a space) between major ‘sections’, this is to simplify manual reading of the strings. Each string is delivered as one continuous line with a CR/LF termination.

Additional details of each status may be discovered by examine the command string for changing those parameters.
