<em_Emphasis><bl_blue>Table 13-11 lists all the SSI opcodes the digital scanner supports. It identifies
the SSI partner allowed to send a message of each type. The host transmits opcodes designated type H.
The digital scanner transmits type D opcodes, and either partner can transmit Host/Decoder (H/D) types.
For details of the SSI protocol, refer to the Simple Serial Interface Programmer's Guide (72-40451-xx).
