ProfiBus and InterBus use big-endian.Without this switch, integer and float will be packed in little-endian (not networkorder) representation in RawData. DeviceNet use little-endian.Only relevant together with option parameter \IntX - UINT, UDINT, INT, DINTand \Float4.StartIndexData type: numStartIndex, between 1 and 1024, indicates where the first byte contained in Valueshall be placed in RawData.[ \Hex1 ] Data type: switchThe Value to be packed has byte format and shall be converted to hexadecimalformat and stored in 1 byte in RawData.[ \IntX ] Data type: inttypesThe Value to be packed has num format, is an integer and shall be stored accordingthe specified constant of data type inttypes, in RawData.See predefined data below.[ \Float4 ] Data type: switchThe Value to be packed has num format and shall be stored as float, 4 bytes, inRawData.[ \ASCII ] Data type: switchThe Value to be packed has byte or string format.If the Value to be packed has byte format, it will be stored in RawData as 1 byte318 RAPID reference manual - part 1a, Instructions A-R
