On-the-fly (Network-Side) Parameters & Instructions

On-the-fly (network-side) parameters and instructions are delivered to the DS via the networkParameter (P) command and are used to change communications mode of the serial port of the DS without rebooting (i.e. "on-the-fly") and also set and sense the state of the I/O lines of the DS. For more information see serial port and serial communications .
