Conversion Formatters
This appendix lists the Conversion Formatters available for the commands
SERIN, I2CIN, LCDIN, and OWIN and demonstrates, though various
input/output data examples, exactly what will be received when using
these formatters.

⊗
Means any non-decimal-numeric characters such as letters, spaces, minus signs, carriage
returns, control characters, etc. (Decimal numerics are: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9).
-- Means no valid data (or not enough valid data) was received so the SERIN command will
halt forever (unless the Timeout argument is used).

NOTE: The HEX formatters are not case sensitive. For example, 1F is the same as 1f.
⊗
Means any non-hexadecimal-numeric characters such as letters (greater than F), spaces,
minus signs, carriage returns, control characters, etc. (Hexadecimal numerics are:
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F).
-- Means no valid data (or not enough valid data) was received so the SERIN command will
halt forever (unless the Timeout argument is used).
