Decimal to Binary Primer
Setting CV’s
Setting the CV’s requires knowledge of conversion between binary
and decimal. The following examples demonstrates the conversion
process from binary to decimal after determining which bits in a CV
need to be “1” and which needs to be “0”. The tables are also useful
for converting binary to decimal.
Reading CV’s
The tables are also useful for converting decimal to binary when
reading the CV’s in service mode. After reading the CV, use the
tables to determine which bits are “1” and which bits are “0”. Once
the bit patterns are identified, find the CV in this manual to
determine what functions are controlled by the bits.
