Composite types are structures (struct) and unions (union) of basic types. Each SNVT eld has a scale
and an oset to represent values with a resolution lower than one. SNVT _ temp has, for example, a scale
of 0.1 and an oset of −2740 to represent a range of −274.0°C to 6,279.5°C by raw values 0–65,535 (2 bytes).
Other SNVTs, which are used in the example, are described in Table 41.1.
SCPT types oen reference SNVT types. For example, SCPTtempOffset, which is used as calibra-
tion oset of temperature probes, references SNVT _ temp _ diff _ p, which describes a temperature
dierence.
