- | The actual message content is transferred in a different format from the ASCII Basic Protocol. | + | The command list almost stays the same as the ASCII Basis Protocol. |
- | + | ||
- | The format used is derived from the YAPP protocol which is very reliable. Each message is made up of a header, blocks of data, an end of message marker and a checksum. | + | |
- | This is directly equivalent to the transfer of one message in the ASCII Basic Protocol. | + | The main change |
- | Unlike YAPP transfers, there is no individual packet acknowledgement during the transmission of messages, the protocol is thus simpler and more efficient. | + | ^ Proposal ^ Usage ^ |
