This driver provides RS-232 trigger of System Macros. Baud Rate is selectable at 1200, 2400, 4800 and 9600. Parity: None, Data Bits: 8, Stop Bits: 1. To construct strings, use the word macro followed by a colon and the macro number you wish to trigger. Terminate the string with a carriage return. The XP-8 will respond with OK if it recognizes the message. You can also send the string "macro: ready?\r" to which the XP-8 will respond OK if the driver is running.

macro: 1\r

Trigger System Macro ID 1

macro: 25\r
