Note 4. A read of the Lock register will return 0x0000 if the meter is unlocked,

otherwise it will return 0xFFFF to indicate a locked meter. To unlock,
the correct lock number must be written, which will then clear the lock
number to 0x0000. If the wrong lock number is written, the reply will
return 0xFFFF. If the correct lock number is written, the reply will be
0x0000. An unlocked meter can be locked by writing any non-zero
value (from 1 to 9999).

Note 5. For the complete floating point standard, see IEEE 754-

1985 Standard for Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic.
