12.6 HVI Record Formats
The HVI records will be divided into Length/Strength, Micronaire,
Color/Trash, Spinning Consistency Index (SCI), and Maturity data sets.
The following describes specific fields.
Note that for the indicated fixed-length fields (xx or xx.xxx for example),
the following applies:
•
Integer fields are left-padded with spaces.
•
Floating-point fields are left-padded with spaces (beyond the “0.”
Units representation for values less than one), and right-padded with
os. For example, 0.32 in a format of “xx.xxx” would transmit
“0.320”.
The standard deviation and CV records are only transmitted for
observation counts of 3 and above. A Mean record is sent if there are 2
or more observations.
For Mean record sets, some data types send a flag for two-sided Retest
and/or a flag for Rejected. ‘R’ is for Retest, ‘n’ is for Not retested; ‘L’ is
for a Lot limit that was accepted, ‘n’ for Not a Lot limit.
