## 11.6. Binary Data

Certain commands (e.g. SO and UO) have the ability to transmit arbitrary binary data in addition to textual characters. Such arbitrary binary data can be specified by means of escape codes as follows:

`%``hexcode`

`hexcode`
  Two digit numeric value of the byte to send in hexidecimal.

For example, the sequence 'TEST' followed by a carriage return/newline could be specified as:

`TEST%0D%0A`
