5 Measured value output
5.1 Telegrams
Notation
The individual sections in the syntax of the telegrams from the TiM5xx are each separated
by a space (ASCII code 32, 20h) as also neccessary in the request to the TiM5xx.
The TiM5xx sends measured values conditioned as followed:
Values with a leading “+” or “–” as a decimal value (ASCII notation).
Values without a leading “+” or “–” as a hexadecimal value (ASCII notation).
The different notations can be mixed within the telegram.
All following telegram examples refer to the CoLa-A protocol

numeric parameters.
The information in the “Value range” column in the table refers to the value range math-
ematically possible for the variable type. The actual value ranges for the parameters
may be different see also Chapter 5.3 Measured value output fomat, Page 24.
