Reports
An SFP report has the format:
The trailer is always FF. An example of a report returned from the 
Get_Error_Report
 command is:
F8 is the header and 00 indicates no errors. An example of a touch 
coordinate report is:
FE is the header and 35 and 2D are the x, y touch coordinates.
Transmit Window 
When you type a command number, it is echoed in the Tx window.
Receive Window
Press CTRL + F2 to toggle the window mode between formatted and 
unformatted. In 
Unformatted Mode
, commands and corresponding 
reports fill a line, then wrap around to the next line, while 
Formatted 
Mode
 puts each command and associated report on a separate line for 
easier viewing.
Commands appear in gray and reports in white.
The current format for the screen display (ASCII or hexadecimal) is 
noted in the upper right corner of the receive window; press ALT + F2 
to toggle the format between the two.
Debug Example
This example demonstrates how to use Debug to initialize a touch 
system and to send and receive touch coordinates, using standard SFP 
commands. This example uses an infrared system with an HBC in the 
direct interface method.
1. Select Debug from the Test Menu. The Debug screen appears, 
similar to the one shown in Figure 7-1. Both the transmit and 
receive windows are empty and set to display data in hexadecimal 
format.
