Hexadecimal Code Specification
• Character
1 is handled as hexadecimal numerical data. Thus, only characters
0 to F can be accepted.
• Data
character 2 occupies exclusively one byte (one address) of DC memory
as
is, and consequently it
is extremely important to ensure that all write com
-
mands
are specified in two-character units (even number). If an odd number of
data characters are specified by mistake, this causes an error.
