Terminology:
 TO PC is the “DESTINATION BIT”
 I4..I0 is the “INSTRUCTION”
 D7..D0 is the “DATA”
 E7..E0 is the “EXTENDED DATA”
The destination bit, TO PC, is 0 when sending from the PC to the machine, or 1 when sending from the machine to the PC.

DESCRIPTION OF INSTRUCTIONS
INSTRUCTION 0 – RESET
DATA=0: initialize the machine.
When the machine is initialized, it will send the RESET code (DATA = 0). If the machine receives this code, it will reset to its
“power-up” state.
DATA=1: configure the machine to its factory default state.
When the machine receives this code, all programmable parameters will be reset to their factory-default values.
EXTENDED DATA - set as 0.
INSTRUCTION 16 – ERROR
If the machine receives an invalid instruction, it replies by sending this error code.
