42、 sequences, parameters, events, states, or similar terms areprinted with the first letter of each word in upper-case and the rest lower-case (e.g., Exchange, Sequence). Anylower case uses of these words have the normal technical English meanings.An alphanumeric list (e.g., a, b, c) of items indicate

43、 the items in the list are unordered. A numeric list (e.g., 1, 2, 3)of items indicate the items in the list are ordered (i.e., item 1 shall occur or complete before item 2).In case of any conflict between figures, tables, and text, the text takes precedence. Exceptions to this conventionare indicate

44、d in the appropriate sections.In all of the figures, tables, and text of this document, the most significant bit of a binary quantity is shown on theleft side. Exceptions to this convention are indicated in the appropriate sections.The ISO convention of numbering is used (i.e., the thousands and hig

45、her multiples are separated by a space). Acomma is used as the decimal point. A comparison of the American and ISO conventions is shown in table 1.Table 1 - Comparison of ISO and American numbering conventionsISO American0,6 0.63,141 592 65 3.141592651 000 1,0001 323 462,9 1,323,462.9ANSI INCITS 424

46、-2007/AM1-20075Numbers that are not immediately followed by lower-case b or h are decimal values (e.g., 25).A sequence of digits 0 or 1 immediately followed by lower-case b (e.g., 0101b) is a binary value. Spaces may beincluded in binary values to delineate byte or field boundaries (e.g., 01011 010b

47、).A sequence of digits and/or upper case letters A through F (i.e., a sequence of hexadecimal digits) immediatelyfollowed by lower-case h (e.g., FA23h) is a hexadecimal value. Spaces may be included in hexadecimal values todelineate byte or field boundaries (e.g., FD 8C FA 23h).A pair of numeric val

48、ues in any base separated by two periods represents the numeric range beginning with thefirst number and ending with the second number, including the beginning and ending numbers (e.g., “1 6”indicates the range from 1 to 6, including 1 and 6).3.3 Abbreviations, acronyms, and symbols3.3.1 Acronyms an
