The decimal formatter is only one of a whole family of conversion
formatters available with SERIN on all the BS2 models. See Table 5.100 for
a list of available conversion formatters. All of the conversion formatters
work similar to the decimal formatter (as described in the “Decimal
Formatter Specifics” section, above). The formatters receive bytes of data,
waiting for the first byte that falls within the range of characters they
accept (e.g., “0” or “1” for binary, “0” to “9” for decimal, “0” to “9” and
“A” to “F” for hex, and “-” for signed variations of any type). Once they
receive a numeric character, they keep accepting input until a non-
numeric character arrives or (in the case of the fixed length formatters) the
maximum specified number of digits arrives.
