If the object resource to be configured as an attribute is defined as "opaque" type it will be published in the attribute in a decimal format and also introduce some spaces time to time. For example, considering the Telit object " Telit Application Data" and its resource 0 defined as "Opaque", the URI is /33205/0/0. To write the value 74657374 in the URI 33205/0/0, send the command:

AT#LWM2MSET=3,33205,0,0,0,"74657374"

When the binding detect this value and made the publish in the attribute the written value appears equal to "116 101 115 116" (decimal format).
