3.1.2.5 Format Field

Some commands, that either send data to a module (as command parameters), or cause the host to

receive data (via command’s response), have an extra format parameter (f digit) appended to (or

specified in) the position field. This parameter, when specified (or implied by default), governs

how internal data are converted to/from external (user-visible) form.

• The most common format (f=0) causes each datum (in command or response) to be

represented as printable ASCII numbers externally (with optional sign and decimal point

as needed). Internally, the module sets/obtains each converted datum to/from a single

precision binary (32-bit) IEEE float.

• Some formats (f=1, 2, 5) encode/decode the internal binary format to/from ASCII

hexadecimal external form. Some of these “hex dump” formats provide an external hex

bit map of the internal binary value (float or integer as appropriate). Format 5 may

encode/decode the internal float value to/from an intermediate scaled binary integer (e.g.,

float value * 1000 into integer, then to/from a hex bit map).

• Two special “binary dump” formats (f=7 and f=8) may be used by some commands to

accept/return binary data directly from/to the user’s command/response. Such values are

not user-readable in their external form, but are directly machine readable and provide

highly compact storage without any accuracy loss due to formatting. Use of these formats

allows both the module and host program to operate in their most efficient, low overhead

mode. Format 7 returns the most significant byte first (i.e., big endian). Format 8 returns

the least significant byte first (i.e., little endian).

See the individual command descriptions for the formats a particular command recognizes.

3.1.3 Responses

Four (4) types of responses can be returned from a NetScanner



System Intelligent Pressure

Scanner module:

• an Error response,

• an Acknowledge response,

• an Acknowledge with Data response, or

• a Network Query response.

The first three may be returned by TCP/IP commands, the latter from a UDP/IP command.
