For messages beginning with zeroes, the first zeroes can be omitted. Examples: * 3 K: results in a value of MSB = 000, LSB = 003. * 0 3 K: results in a value of MSB = 000, LSB = 003. * 1 0 0 3 K: results in a value of MSB = 001, LSB = 003. * 0 1 0 0 3 K: results in a value of MSB = 001, LSB = 003. Entering Values Value entry on the CBX-K1 can be done in two number systems: Decimal and Hexadecimal. The keys labeled A through F are for Hexadecimal entry. q Entering a decimal value: Hold down C, press the appropriate function key, enter the desired value in decimal format, then press K.
