<CHARACTER PROGRAM DATA>

This data type will be used to send short mnemonics when a
<DECIMAL NUMERIC PROGRAM DATA> cannot be used.
Examples: TRIANGLEWAVE, NCONTINUOUS
<DECIMAL NUMERIC PROGRAM DATA> (or <NRf>)

This data type includes <NR1>, <NR2> and <NR3> data types. It will
be used for decimal fractions with or without an exponent. Instruments
will adapt the values they receive to fit their degree of precision. For
example, if an instrument has a precision of two digits after the
decimal point and the incoming value is 12.048, this value will be
rounded off to 12.05.
