If the AM_Location field is coded using the level tree format, each used level shall be encoded in the Location string with a ‘.’ followed by the value of the level bits encoded as decimal number string. According to [PN TAD] – Figure 38, the HART sensor has the Location string ”.0.4.1.1”.

If the AM_Location field is coded using the slot- and subslotnumber format, the Location string shall be encoded as ‘BeginSlotNumber/BeginSubslotNumber-EndSlotNumber/EndSubslotNumber’. BeginSlotNumber and EndSlotNumber shall be encoded as decimal number strings. BeginSubslotNumber and EndSubslotNumber shall be encoded as hexadecimal number strings (0x…) According to [PN TAD] – Figure 38, the IO-MC 1 asset has the Location string ”2/0x1-4/0x1”.
