^name^Format of value^writeable^Description^
|ANALOG.NOW [<analogPt>]|10-bit integer|no|A/D output value in A/D units|
|BREAK.ABORT.TIME |float seconds|Yes, reset to 0.25 on tepid resets|The elapsed time in seconds for a continuous TTY line-break to abort command processing.|
|BREAK.RESET.TIME|float seconds|Yes, reset to 5.0 on tepid resets|The elapsed time in seconds for a continuous TTY line-break to force a warm restart of the Brewer.|
|BYTE.X [<address>]|ANSI C integer format (Hex on output)|yes|value of the relevant byte in external RAM|
|BYTE.F [<address>]|ANSI C integer format (Hex on output)|no|reads value from Flash memory|
|BYTE.C [<address>]|ANSI C integer format (Hex on output)|no|value of the relevant byte in CODE space|
|BYTE.D [<address>]|ANSI C integer format (Hex on output)|yes|value of the relevant byte in DATA space
|DIGITAL.INPUT [<digitalPt>]|OFF or ON|no|reads whether input is ON or OFF; logic levels are transparent to the user.|
|DIGITAL.OUTPUT [<digitalPt >]|OFF or ON|yes|digital output point ON or OFF with logic levels transparent to the user.|
|ECHO.SUPPRESSION|ON/OFF|:::|Suppresses TTY mode echoing when ON, allows echoing when OFF.|
|HG.SWITCH|OFF or ON|yes|mercury lamp set OFF or ON|
|STD.SWITCH|OFF or ON|yes standard lamp set OFF or ON|
|LAMP.POWER [<lamp>]|watts|no|lamp power consumption|
|LAMP.STATE [<lamp>]|lamp state type|yes|state of lamp (OFF or ON)|
|MOISTURE|Grams/cu. m|no|Moisture content of air inside the Brewer|
|MOISTURE.HIGH|Grams/cu m|yes|Moisture content high (watermark)|
|MOTOR.ALLSTILL|TRUE or FALSE|no|True only if all the motors have stopped moving|
|MOTOR.POS [<motorId>]|steps|no current motor position|
|MOTOR.LOST [<motorId>]|Boolean|no|current motor position unknown exactly|

|MOTOR.LIMIT.HIGH [<motorId>]|Boolean|no|high travel limit sensor activated
|MOTOR.REF.LOW [<motorId>]|Boolean|no|lower reference sensor (#1) activated (Low = Mirror side, or high number when doing an FR)|
|MOTOR.REF.HIGH [<motorId>]|Boolean|no|upper reference sensor (#2) activated (High = bulkhead side , or 0 when doing an FR)|
|MOTOR.DISCREPANCY [<motorId>]|paces|no|position of the reference position on the most recent motor initialization. This is a measure of accumulated motor position error between the most recent and the immediately prior initialization.|
|MOTOR.ZERO.POS [<motorId>]|signed integer paces|no|the same as MOTOR.ORIGIN on a reset, but is updated by negative M commands.|
|PMT.SELECT|integer (1 to 3)|yes|selects the PMT in use; 3 means both RH % no Relative Humidity inside the Brewer|
