5017H/5017UH module you want to configure.
AFF represents the set data format command. ff
represents the 2-character hexadecimal code of the
data format. 00 is for engineering unit format. 02 is for
two’s complement format.
(cr) is the terminating character, carriage return (0Dh).
Note: Each channel in an ADAM-5017H /5017UH module may be set
to a differ- ent range, but the data formats of all channels in
this module
must be the same.

response: !01(cr)
The data format of the ADAM-5017H /5017UH
module in slot 3 of the ADAM-5000/TCP system at
address 01h is configured for engineering unit format.
The response indicates that the command has been
