always = 00.
Get-Function description:
Length:
Total bytes of message = 5 ASCII (35H), excluding “CR”
Command:

Total bytes of packet = 5 ASCII excluding “CR”
Exception: Total bytes for On-Hours = 6
Value[1-4]:
Four ASCII codes: Value range is from 0000 ~ 9999
Exception: Value[1-5] for On-Hours
LCD Monitor will send “+” (02Bh), “CR” bytes to PC after receiving a valid command
LCD Monitor will send “-” (02Dh), “CR” bytes to PC if the command is not valid
The following is an example of PC requesting the volume value from the LCD Monitor:
