Reference
• If readout data includes function characters (such as "%SFT:0"), the setting character ("%SFT:0") is read out, but
characters to be actually marked are not.
• If readout data includes characters that cannot be expressed in ASCII code such as Katakana and Kanji (2-byte
character), only these 2-byte characters are read out in shift-JIS code. In this case, the maximum readout data will be
32-byte or more.
