Cause Values and their meanings/interpretations
Event Data
Event Data 2 sometimes contains data that represents the Cause Value (CV) (required), Cause
Value Diagnostic (DIAG) (optional), Location Code (LC) (optional) from the denial event. This
information (DIAG/LOC/CV) is coded as a 32 bit hexadecimal number, divided into 8-bit fields.
● The least significant (right most) two digits are the Cause Value in hexadecimal.
● The next two digits to the left are the Location Code (optional) in hexadecimal. See
Table 49: Location Code definitions on page 153.
● The next two digits to the left are the Diagnostic Code (optional) in hexadecimal.
● The most significant (left most) two digits are not used.
See Table 46: Event Data 2 layout.

● 0x00 is the Diagnostic Code (not provided for this denial event).
2. Convert the hexadecimal number provided in Event Data 2 to three binary numbers: put a 1
in the appropriate binary number positions that add up to the value of the number.
Each binary number consists of eight bits. See Table 47: Event Data 2 conversion
example on page 152 for an example of the hexadecimal number 0x429, and
