CLOSE PORT,function
{,function,…}
Close specified MRC-565 port from operation. You
can enter more than one port name to close, using
commas to separate the names on the same line.
CAUTION
The OPEN/CLOSE PORT commands directly
affect MRC-565 network activity and message flow.
Do NOT use these commands unless directed to do
so by your System Administrator.
