Unit Numbers in Host Link Commands

3 posts in this topic

I have a question about specifying the unit number within a host link (i.e., C-mode) command. According to the manual W342-E1-06 (Communication Command Reference Manual), the unit number is specified in BCD. I'm unsure as to what this really means. Does it simply mean that, for example, unit 15 is specified by the two ASCII characters "1" and "5" (e.g., "@15TSABC07\13") or is it more complicated (e.g., the BCD binary equivalent for decimal 15 is specified in hexadecimal)? Any clarification on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, MickeyBob

This is exactly what it means. Your ASCII string is correct.
