Operating mode
BCD mode
The BCD value at I1 will be converted to a binary value and output at output QV. The
binary value is displayed as a decimal value.
BIN mode
The binary value present at input I1 is converted to a BCD value and supplied at the
output QV. The binary value is displayed as a decimal value.
