Does anyone know what the ''CAPS'' number means on an at+s.scan response?

For instance : 

''CAPS: 0431 WPA WPA2 WPS'' - what's the 0431 mean?  I'm assuming it's some kind of code field for the security, dhcp whatever....

Would be nice to have a document describing what it means...

    Hi,

    you can refer to the attached picture.

    Based on that, 0431 means:

    - transmitter is an AP (1)

    - AP cannot support WEP and short preamble not allowed (3)

    - short slot time not in use (4)
