Data Format
To understand the format of the data within the block data, there are four
important things to keep in mind.
•
Data is sent to the controller in binary form.
•
Each byte, as described in this chapter, contains 8 bits.
•
The first bit of each byte is the MSB (most significant bit).
•
Byte descriptions are printed in binary, decimal, or ASCII depending on
how the data is described.
Example
The first ten bytes that describe the section name contain a total of 80 bits as
follows:
Byte 1
