Numerical Data Formats

The numerical data format of 62000H DC Power Supply is listed in Table 5-6. Numerical
data can be added to the suffix to distinguish data while the multiplier can be placed prior the
suffix. Table 5-7 lists the suffix used by 62000H DC Power Supply and Table 5-8 lists the
multiplier.
Symbol
NR1 It is a digit without decimal point. The decimal is
assumed to be at the right of the least significant digit.
NR2 It is a digit with a decimal point.
NR3 It is a digit with a decimal point and an exponent.
NRf Flexible decimal format including NR1or NR2 or NR3.
NRf+ Extended decimal format including NRf and MIN, MAX.
MIN and MAX is the high and low limit of parameter.
