Command
Reading this frame, the decoder understands:
The user wants to send a command (Type "D") to all the symbologies (Header "A"). Any command
can be sent but not all may be effective on all symbologies.
The command "C" will first be sent to all symbologies, and applied to all of them since they all have
this option available.
Then the command "I" will also be sent to all symbologies but only some of them will apply it
(Code39, Codabar).
