Did you double-check that they didn't want "0200" in ascii
in the message?
As in:
STX0200ENX
Because that's always possible. And, if you're _lucky_, they designed
the innards of the message so that "ENX" ca

ok, i am stuck again.
from the docs, the byte stream is supposed to look like this:
'S' 'T' 'X' [length indicator] [message type] [message] 'E' 'N' 'X'
the length indicator it says is a four byte integer number of a value N
( N would be how long the message body is )
the message type comes f
i'm not sure, but its kinda been a pain in the hinder for a newbie like
me to find it in their docs.

Yes, but when someone says ASCII STX, they usually mean
the single byte control character. This is a non-printable chara

byte 2 = 'T'
and byte 3 = 'X'
