Note: The last example shows a case where a remote node was instructed to change its
own ID from 6556 to 7557. Even if it changed its ID, it answers with the old ID in
order to correctly finish the transaction.

DESCRIPTION Sets/returns the node’s Power Management Parameters (switches on/off the
battery charge).
PARAMETERS The lower (switch on) and the higher limit (switch off), both in volts x 10. Standard
Values are 65 (for 6.5 Volts) for switch on and 72 (for 7.2 Volts) for switch off (for a
standard 6.2 Volt NiCd battery). From these values, other thresholds are internally
computed. When the temperature drops below 10°C the upper threshold is
increased by 5 percent of its set value. Rises the temperature above 20°C the
upper threshold is reduced by 5 percent of its set value.
RETURNS The lower (switch on, a char) and the higher limit (switch off, a char), both in volts x
10.
REMARKS GET/SET.
REMOTE Yes, SET only.
