aa (range 00-FF) represents the 2-character hexadeci-
mal address of an ADAM-5000/TCP system that is
responding.
(data) is the hexadecimal value representing the sta-
tus of all digital output channels. A 4-character value
represents the output channels in sequence from 15
thru 0 in an ADAM-5056 module. A 2-character value
represents the output channels in sequence from 5
thru 0 in an ADAM-5060 module. And a 2-character
value represents the output channels in
sequence from 7 thru 0 in ADAM-
5068/5069 module. Each bit represents a channel.
A value of 1 means the channel is masked, while
a value of 0 means the channel is valid.
