Type - Type of the ANC Data packet. For ARIB TR-B.23-1, this is always a Type 2 packet ( DID less than 0x80), as
defined by SMPT
E 291M. The actual value (with parity bits added) is displayed in parentheses.
SDID - Seconda
ry Data Identifier of the requested packet; permissible values range from 0 through 0xFF (255) inclusive.
This field only appears when a Type 2 packet is selected (see above). The actual value (with parity bits added) is
displayed in parentheses.
DC - Data Count word of the acquired packet. The number of User Data words is displayed in decimal. The actual value
