Q3
This record type is used instead of a Q2 record to define a custom device
length. It contains a 4-digit field defining the device length in thousands
of an inch, represented in hex.
The length of a device is defined as the distance between the outermost
extensions of the device (pins included) in the direction of travel through
the 2500’s track. The device length must be represented as an integer
before it is converted to a hex value.
To define a device with a length of .491 inches long:
1. Convert 0.491 into an integer by dividing it by 0.001. The result is 491.
2. Convert 491 (decimal) to 01EB (hex).
