Appendix A.4.3.

Numeric Values

The driver recognizes numeric values by checking the first character of the value field. If it is a digit then the field is treated as a number.

Appendix A.4.4. Occupancy Strings / Values

If the value returned for a variable is 8 characters long and each of the characters is a one or a zero then the driver regards this as an occupancy string an converts it to a binary coded decimal value and then stores this value.

E.g.: 00101010 = 42 decimal
