Many commands can be issued with or without data. b: A single 'b' denotes a single byte value with various meaning, see comments.$00 | $01 | $02: A list separated by vertical bars | means that one or another value can be sent.data: Complex data like Memory, differs for various rigs, see details in later sections (and sometimes 'data' simply means that I don't know the exact format).level: a 2-byte BCD coded value between 0 and 255, used for various analog settings (AF gain, RF gain, SQL gain etc.).wn: Window Number, applies to IC-R9000 only.bn, mn: bank number and memory number as shown in section 3.4.md, pd: mode and passband data as shown in section 3.3.fd: frequency data as shown in section 3.2.In column data some abbreviations are used: Also in the following sections are detailed listings for some radios which are too long and complex to include them here. This list of CI-V commands is just an overview, the following sections will explain them in more depth and with examples. A later section tries to give an overview about which rigs understands which command. two rigs may offer the same function but with different commands. Further many commands have different effects on different rigs, i.e. Later commands are sometimes working on one or a few radios only. The basic set of commands ($00 to $10) are nearly identically used on all rigs, with some variation. Meanwhile (2006) there are rigs which support nearly 200 different commands. When the CI-V protocol was first used with the IC-735 it supported only a handful commands.
