This command will stop all active motors and other actuators too. If there are no errors, a positive reply of <wrap reply> :A </wrap> will be returned.   If the <wrap cmd> HALT</wrap> command is given while a commanded move is in motion, the controller will reply with the <wrap reply> :N-21 </wrap> error.     

--> Additional Notes for Tiger cards^

It's usually a ''Broadcast Command'' but can be used as a ''Card-Addressed Command'' as well. When addressed to a specific card, it stops motion on that card only.  Note that to use as a ''Card-Addressed Command'' the full command ''HALT'' must be used instead of the shortcut ''\'', because ''\'' is handled quickly in the command parser.
