Based on the table, the byte 01001011 can be represented in hex as 4B, which is usually written as any of
4Bh, 4BH, 4B hex or 0x4B.
The numbers can also be expressed in decimal form if preferred.
6.3.1 ASCII Characters
Since computers deal internally with numbers only, but externally with both letters and numbers, several
schemes were developed to "map" written characters to numeric values. One such scheme has become
universal, the American Standard Code for Information Interchange, or ASCII. ASCII tables are readily
available from a number of sources. A few examples will do here:
The letter
A
has a value of
65 decimal or
41 hex
The letter
a
has a value of
97 decimal or
61 hex
The number
0
has a value of
48 decimal or
30 hex
The number
9
has a value of
57 decimal or
39 hex
This gives rise to the possibility of confusion when parameters are being set on the LK202-24-USB For
example, the GPO ON and OFF commands use a number to indicate which GPO is being controlled.
We're
told that acceptable values are 0 to 6.
All such parameters must use numeric values (i.e. the actual byte
values).
If we send the ASCII number 0 by mistake it will actually give the value 48 decimal (30 hex) to the
parameter, which is wrong.
In the tables given in the following sections ASCII characters are shown as 'A', with single quotes.
6.4 Text Commands
See Chapter 0 for command descriptions. Syntax in the tables below is given in hex, decimal and decimal
with ASCII, in that order, one per line.
Note: The letter "R" in the Default column indicates that this state can be saved to nonvolatile memory with
the Remember command. See section 5.1.1.
