3. Status byte register
The status byte register summarizes the information from the status register. A summary of this status
byte register is sent to the controller as a service request. Therefore, the status byte register operates
slightly differently than the status register structure. This section describes the status byte register.
The status byte register structure is shown in Figure 6-6.
Figure 6-6 Status Byte Register Structure
This status byte register follows the status register except for the following three points:
• The summary of the status byte register is written to bit6 of the status byte register.
• Bit6 of the enable register is always enabled and cannot be changed.
• Bit6 (MSS) of the status byte register writes the RQS of the service request.
