LEGEND-MC User’s Manual
The following interrogation commands are affected by the PF command:
If the number of decimal places specified by PF is less than the actual value, a nine appears in all the
decimal places.
Example:
The Variable Format (VF) command is used to format variables and array elements. The VF command is
specified by:
VF m.n
where m is the number of digits to the left of the decimal point (0 through 10) and n is the number of digits
to the right of the decimal point (0 through 4).
A negative sign for m specifies hexadecimal format. The default format for VF is VF 10.4
Hex values are returned preceded by a $ and in 2's complement.
The variable format also affects returned values from internal variables such as _GNX.
