Message ID
The Message ID register contains a 16-bit integer identifier for the command. When a response
is sent back to the message initiator, the same message ID is used in that message. Message ID’s
can be selected arbitrarily, but successive messages must contain different ID’s so as to trigger
the execution of the message (i.e. a message will only be executed upon the ID value changing).
Message Information
This register contains information about whether the message is a command or a response, and
may also indicate an error (see below).
