Let us take the following example, where all the Application Data Values exchanged by the Applications are triplets made of 3 fields, and are always represented on 6 octets:
- The first 2 octets are used to represent the first member of the triplet: some integer between -32768 and +32767.
- The 3rd octet is used to represent the second member of the triplet: some boolean.
- The last 3 octets are used to represent the 3rd member of the triplet: some string of 3 characters, represented using the ASCII encoding.
Note that the interpretation of this member as some counter of some sort is outside the scope of the specification for a Transfer Syntax. The semantics are only defined as the types of the information, but not as the operational semantics attached to the information.
