8. Appendix B: Byte sequence of float values
In the DIGIFORCE 9310, one can reverse the order of the 4 bytes making up a
float number as specified in IEEE-754 by breaking and resoldering solder
bridges on the PROFIBUS board. Normally this is not necessary; however there
are PROFIBUS masters whose conversion routine expects a different sequence.
Please follow the instructions below for changing the order.
The unit must only be opened by qualified personnel. Observe the
