5.1 Response Syntax
The following table shows the types of responses for various commands described in the
previous chapter.
The MV returns a response (affirmative/negative response) to a command that is
delimited by a terminator. The controller should follow the one command to one response
format. If the command-response rule is not observed, the operation is not guaranteed.

delimiters, the MV returns multiple negative responses.
• The MV transmits a response for each command that causes an error.

mits negative responses
