Arrays
Some parameters have multiple elements and are classified as parameter arrays. A parameter array has a
parameter number that accesses the
whole of the array. It also has parameter numbers that represent
each
element
of the array.
Array Example: A parameter array called
VHZ_USER FREQ
has 11 elements.
Parameter Number Parameter - VHZ_USER FREQ
0145 whole array
0146 index 0
0147 index 1
… …
0157 index 10
If the parameter number of the whole array is 0145, then the parameter number of the element index 0 of
the array will be 0134, the parameter number of the element index 01 will be 0147, etc.
String
A string parameter may be accessed via its parameter number.
