WISE Receive Number
Contents |
Description
The communication between two WISE devices is devided into two possibilities
When number is send or received the data size is always 5 bytes - the first byte is a control byte (always 'L') and the remaining 4 bytes represents a 32 bit integer is a little endian format.
