Number of bits: char
Character bit length for test hardware
Model Configuration Pane: Hardware Implementation
Description
The Number of bits: char parameter specifies the character bit length for the hardware that you use to test code.
Selecting a device by using the Device vendor and Device type parameters sets a device-specific value for this parameter.
Dependencies
This parameter is enabled only if you can modify it for the selected hardware.
Settings
8 (default) | 16 | 24 | 32The bit length must be an integer multiple of 8 that is less than
            or equal to 32. Different devices have different settings available
            for this parameter.
Recommended Settings
| Application | Setting | 
|---|---|
| Debugging | No impact | 
| Traceability | No impact | 
| Efficiency | Target specific | 
| Safety precaution | No impact when Test hardware is the same as production hardware is selected. If it is not selected, no recommendation. |
