Below are two examples of converting FORMS data to multipunch format. These examples are less detailed than examples 1 and 2.
Indexed mark fields:
Value specification: 12,13,14
Quantum format: 01000000 01000000 01000010 01000000
Output from Transfer: @@B@
Only one of the fields in the series is filled in, but the largest value in the specification is 14 (greater than 9). Therefore, the field value (12) in this example is converted to Quantum format before transfer.
Indexed mark fields:
Value specification: 2,3,4
Quantum format: Not applicable
Output from Transfer: 2
Only one of the fields in the series is filled in, and the largest value in the specification is 4 (not greater than 9). Therefore, the field value (2) in this example is not converted to Quantum format before transfer.
When are field values converted to Quantum multipunch format?
