MSB1 = 0
LSB1 = comm. object value
ShortStr
ASCII string of max. length of 15
characters (zero terminated string)
8
MSB1 = 1. character of the string
LSB1 = 2. character of the string
MSB2 = 3. character of the string
LSB2 = 4. character of the string
…
LongStr
ASCII string of max. length of 31
characters (zero terminated string)

MSB1 = BCD(day)
LSB1 = BCD(month)
MSB2 = BCD(year)
LSB2 = 0
example:
MSB1 = 18 (HEX)
LSB1 = 04 (HEX)
MSB2 = 01 (HEX)
LSB2 = 0
 Date = 18.4.(20)01
