 Parameters passed in the query string define how to interpret the fetched register data:
 
 *   **`border`**: i.e., `MSB` (`Big-Endian`) or `LSB` (`Little-Endian`).
-*   **`type`**: i.e., `INT16`, `UINT32`, `BOOLEAN`, `ASCII`.
+*   **`type`**: e.g., `INT16`, `UINT32`, `FLOAT32`, `BOOLEAN`, `ASCII`.
 *   **`worder`**: i.e., `HWF` (`High-Word First`) or `LWF` (`Low-Word First`) (for 32-bit values).
-*   **`scale`**: i.e., `1.0`, `0.01`, `100.0` (scale factor).
+*   **`scale`**: e.g., `1.0`, `0.01`, `100.0` (scale factor).
+*   **`bit`**: e.g., `2` (Integer bit index).
 
 ### Network Parameters
 
 The `host` maps to a named network in the device's `model_localnet.json` (under the `networks` field). Each named network can define the following parameters for communication:
 
 *   **`baud`**: The baud rate.
-*   **`protocol`**: i.e., `RTU`, `TCP`.
+*   **`protocol`**: i.e., `RTU`, `TCP`, `ASCII`.
 *   **`parity`**: For serial `RTU`.
 *   **`data bits`**: For serial `RTU`.
 *   **`stop bits`**: For serial `RTU`.
