FUJINET BYTES

The function FUJINET BYTES returns the number of bytes that are waiting to be read from the channel for the selected device. In other words, if a read operation were performed, the system would read without blocking up to this number of bytes. The value refers to the last execution of the FUJINET STATUS command, so you need to execute this command before reading the information.
