ASCII	ASCII Command	Send arbitrary ASCII text to the device.
Hex	Hexadecimal Command	Send arbitrary Hex values to the device.

An example would be (assuming a device with a load command exists):

ASCII Command:
Load Preset X,load X
Load Preset Y,load Y

Hex Command:
Set Crosspoint 1,{{05 A0 01}}

It is possible to combine both commands:

Execute Custom Command,Execute:{{00 BE EF 00}}
