Bits 0 to 15 are individual control bits for the matching node number 0 to 15. If the bit is set to 1, the

node is activated; if the bit is set to 0, the node is de-activated. On power-up reset, these bits are set as

defined by the SW1 setting, with some motor nodes possibly disabled by MI976, and some I/O nodes

possibly enabled by MI975. Node 15 should always be activated to support the Type 1 auxiliary

communications.

Bits 16-19 specify the slave number of the packet which will generate the “sync pulse” on the Geo

MACRO Station. This is always set to 15 ($F) on the Geo MACRO Station.

Bits 20-23 specify the master number (0-15) for the Geo MACRO Station. At power-up/reset, these bits

get the value set by SW2. The number must be specified whether the card is a master station or a slave

station.
