5.6 Numerical Data Formats
The Sorensen MML Series electronic load accepts the numerical data types listed in
Table 5-2.
Symbol
Description
Example
NR1
Digits with no decimal point. The decimal point
is assumed to be to the right of the least-
significant digit.
123, 0123
NR2
Digits with a decimal point.
123., 12.3, 0.123, .123
NR3
Digit with a decimal point and an exponent.
1.23E+3, 1.23E-3
NRf
Flexible decimal form that includes NR1 or
NR2 or NR3.
123, 12.3, 1.23E+3
NRf+
Expanded decimal form that includes NRf and
MIN, MAX. MIN and MAX are the minimum
and maximum limit values for the parameter.
123, 12.3, 1.23E+3,
MIN, MAX
Table 5-2 Numerical Data Type
Numerical data may be followed by a suffix that dimensions the data. A suffix may be
preceded by a multiplier. The MML Series device makes use of the suffixes listed in
Table 5-3 and multipliers listed in Table 5-4.
