The full documentation of RAPI is in the rapi_proc.h file in the source code. Here is a link to the currently shipping "Stable" version:
https://github.com/OpenEVSE/open_evse/blob/stable/rapi_proc.h
The * indicates the following characters are a 8 bit sum of all the characters before.
OpenEVSE RAPI supports 3 types of checksum none, sum and XOR.
ck = 2-hex-digit checksum - 8-bit sum of all characters before '*'
xk = 2-hex-digit checksum - 8-bit XOR of all characters before '^'
Development versions of RAPI also include a sequence number so commands and responses can be fully verified and validated.
Chris, thanks for the quick response.

In RAPI command line $SH*BD what is does the BD do. I have been looking for explanations of what various options following the * in basic RAPI commands execute. Is there a link that explains what the arguments following the * are.
Thanks, Greg
