5.7.39 TMCL™ Control Functions
The following functions are for host control purposes only and are not allowed for standalone mode. In
most cases, there is no need for the customer to use one of those functions (except command 139). They
are mentioned here only for reasons of completeness. These commands have no mnemonics, as they cannot
be used in TMCL™ programs. The Functions are to be used only by the TMCL-IDE to communicate with the
module, for example to download a TMCL™ application into the module.
The only control commands that could be useful for a user host application are:
 get firmware revision (command 136, please note the special reply format of this command,
described at the end of this section)
 run application (command 129)
All other functions can be achieved by using the appropriate functions of the TMCL-IDE.
