Handling Precautions
•
The data address, read count, value to write, and data to read must conform to
the following rules.
•
A decimal value with four or fewer digits must be converted to a four-digit
hexadecimal value.

Ex.: Decimal value “0” is converted to “0000” (30H, 30H, 30H, 30H).

Ex.: Decimal value “123” is converted to “007B” (30H, 30H, 37H, 42H).
•
A negative value is converted to the 2's complement of a four-digit
hexadecimal value.

Ex.: Decimal value “−123” is converted to "FF85" (46H, 46H, 38H, 35H).
(The value is not preceded by a minus sign).
