At the digital I/O connector, port C has the following pin assignments
when in mode 2. Notice that the status of STBA* and the status of
ACKA* are not included in the port C status word.

Mode 2 Programming Example
The following example shows how to configure PPI A for mode 2 input
and output and how to use the handshaking signals to control data flow.
This code is strictly an example and is not intended to be used without
modification in a practical situation.
Main() {
#define BASE_ADDRESS 0x180 /* Board located at address 180 */
#define APORTAoffset 0x00 /* Offset for PPI A, port A */
#define APORTBoffset 0x01 /* Offset for PPI A, port B */
#define APORTCoffset 0x02 /* Offset for PPI A, port C */
#define ACNFGoffset 0x03 /* Offset for PPI A, CNFG */
unsigned int porta, portb, portc, cnfg;
char valread; /* Variable to store data read from a port */
#
The three port C lines associated with group B function are based on the
mode selected for group B; that is, if group B is configured for mode 0,
PC2-PC0 function as general-purpose input/output, but if group B is
configured for mode 1 input or output, PC2-PC0 function as handshaking
lines as shown in the preceding mode 1 sections.
