To Send Non-printable Characters Using Com Test
You can send non-printable control characters in a control string by pressing the Alt key and while
holding it down, enter the 3 digit character code using the separate numerical keypad on the
computer. For example, Esc=27. Press and hold Alt, then press 0 2 7 then release Alt.
For example: The Command for the 232SDA12 digital output is !0SO and bits. Hold Alt and
