Notes
Command terminators: each command must end with one of . ; ! " $ & — without the end the command fails. Do not append a carriage return.
Command syntax is case-sensitive. Capitalization, spacing, and lettering must not be changed.
Group example: 3P2 routes input 3 to group 2 (outputs 4, 5, and 6) — confirms at least 4 outputs.
Memory slots: 0 through 9 (10 total).
