Note 1 Any command may be enabled or disabled by the
       use of the '+' or '-' modifier, as shown below :

          ANY_COMMAND   [ + | - | THAT_COMMANDS_PARAMETERS ]

       Commands may be caused to be displayed or not in
       the prompt screen if the '-' or '+' is followed
       by 'D' ( or 'd' )

Note 2 IP addresses are of the form nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
       where nnn is a number 0..255

Note 3 IProute port parameter is 0 for radio or 1 for
       rs232

Note 4 ARP ptcl parameter is AX.25 or Net/Rom (may be
       abbreviated)

Note 5 The commands will accept the 'old' syntax of '*
       * * value...' or the new offset & value syntax of
       '/ parameter_number value'

Note 6 Voltmeter channels 1,2,3,4 correspond to ADC channels 3,4,1,2 
       respectively. The ADC command reads them.
