This request command allows automation equipment to read
the text descriptions that are stored in the control.
The control will response with a {@link TextDescriptionResponse}.
NOTE! The {@link TextDescriptionResponse} may not be for the
address requested! If there is no description for the requested
address the next addresses will be searched until one with a
description is found (or, if none are found, an address of 0 will
be returned).
From the protocol specification:
If the first character in a requested name is a “space” or less,
then the next names are searched until a name is found whose first
character is greater than “space” or the “Show On Keypad” bit is
set. If no valid names are found, a “000” for the NNN address is
returned. This speeds up the loading of names so that invalid
names are not returned. M1 version 2.4.6 or later.
