Download 6. Configuring the Gateway

Glossary
0x••••
Value expressed in hexadecimal, which is equivalent to the H••••, ••••h and 16#••••
notations, sometimes used in other documents.
NOTE: The ABC-LUFP Config Tool software uses the 0x•••• notation.
E.g. 0x0100 = 16#0100 = 256.
2#•••• ••••
Value expressed in binary. The number of ‘•’ digits depends on the size of the item of data
represented. Each nibble (group of 4 bits) is separated from the other nibbles by a space.
E.g. byte 2#0010 0111 = 39, word 2#0110 1001 1101 0001 = 0x69D1 = 27089.
