exception of output voltage related functions, are represented
by the linear format described below. Output voltage functions
are represented by a 16 bit mantissa. Output voltage has a E=9
constant exponent.

The Linear Data Format is a two byte value with an 11-bit,
two’s complement mantissa and a 5-bit, two’s complement
exponent or scaling factor, its format is shown below.

Notes: Settings and read backs above support the 12Vdc main
output. There are no adjustments or read backs of the standby
output. Failure of the standby output is reported by the
STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC register. The code does not check the
validity of, or whether the data being changed is within the
expected boundary. The user is responsible to make sure that
data placed in the registers is within the monitored range.
