REMARKS
*1. Setting any of "0.1" to "999" in Pr. 37 "speed display" and "1" in instruction code "HFF" sets
the data format to A" or E" (6-digit data). Also, the output frequency turns to a speed
display, which is valid in 0.01r/min increments. (The third decimal place is invalid.) If the
instruction code "HFF" is other than "1", the display is in 1r/min increments and a 4-digit
data format can be used. Reply data is given in format E if the requested monitor data has
4 digits, in format E' if the data has 2 digits, or in format E" if the data has 6 digits.
*2. The data format to read/write Pr. 37 "speed display" is always E"/A" (6-digit data).
