When sending commands from a host program such as C or Visual Basic to a 6000 or 6K product, you need to add a delimiter at the end of each command. For the 6000 or 6K products, the delimiter is a carriage return, line feed or a colon.
For example:
PRINT #1,"D25000:V5:A10:GO1:"
If you are trying to send a variable to the 6000 or 6K product, and you want to have the variable change while the program is running, you need to add an exclamation point to the beginning of the string.
For example:
PRINT #1,"!VAR1=10:"
