stream into active Message Mode; i.e., the
contents of the Connection Memory Low
are output on the ST-BUS output streams
once every frame unless the ODE pin is
low. In this mode the chip behaves as if
bits 2 and 0 of every Connection Memory
High location were 1, regardless of the
actual values.
High location function normally (see
Figure 5). If bit 2 is 1, the associated ST-
BUS output channel is in Message Mode;
i.e., the byte in the corresponding Connec-
tion Memory Low location is transmitted
on the stream at that channel. Otherwise,
one of the bytes received on the serial
inputs is transmitted and the contents of
the Connection Memory Low define the
ST-BUS input stream and channel where
the byte is to be found (see Figure 6).
If bit 6 of the Control Register is 0, then
bits 2 and 0 of each Connection Memory

When 1, all subsequent reads are from the Data Memory
and writes are to the Connection Memory Low, except when
the Control Register is accessed again. When 0, the Memory
Select bits specify the memory for subsequent operations. In
either case, the Stream Address Bits select the subsection of
the memory which is made available.

When 1, the contents of the Connection Memory Low are output
on the Serial Output streams except when the ODE pin is low.
When 0, the Connection Memory bits for each channel determine
what is output.
