There's no beep in response to a garbled RS-232 command, Sverre. The K2 ignores incorrect commands and quickly recovers to process the next one.

This could be a side-effect of a command buffer overrun, however. Some programs send a *lot* of data, very fast, without checking for a response. Rather than hide this problem by buffering huge quantities of data, we suggest that control programs behave in a civilized fashion :)
