ECHO 0 [ON/OFF] ECHO OK ECHO ERR
A character string received by the TXn/ACD1 can be echoed back to debug the controller.
Switching the Echo function on will cause a character string to be echoed back until the Echo function or the TXn/ACD1 are switched off.
The default is OFF.
It may be controlled normally while it is echoed back.
- The first option will always take "0." It is reserved for future extensions to the command.
- [ON/OFF] will have a character string of either "ON" or "OFF."
- One or more spaces are needed between the command and the option, and between the options.
E.g.) To switch the TXn/ACD1 Echo on:
ECHO 0 ON
To switch the TXn/ACD1 Echo off:
ECHO 0 OFF
A character string of "ECHO OK" will be output to the controller if successful, or "ECHO ERR" if unsuccessful.

FRSP 0 [ON/OFF] FRSP OK FRSP ERR
The command name stands for "Forbid Recall Scene Parameter".
If this feature is turned ON, the TXn/ACD1 will not issue PRM commands to notify of parameter changes caused by scene recalls.
You can use this command to control whether parameter values are sent to the external controller at time of scene change.
Under default conditions, a scene recall will cause the TXn/ACD1 to send to the external controller a SCN command
(notifying of the recall) together with multiple PRM commands notifying of the corresponding changes to parameter values.
If the scene involves many parameters, then the recall will generate transmission of many PRM commands.
In some cases, however, these PRM commands are essentially meaningless.
If the external controller is only interested in the current scene number at the TXn/ACD1, for example,
then the PRM commands are of no value and are a waste of bandwidth.
In cases such as these, you can use the "FRSP 0 ON"" command to suppress output of these PRM commands.
- The first option will always take "0."
- [ON/OFF] will have a character string of either "ON" or "OFF."
- One or more spaces are needed between the command and the option, and between the options.
