CNT[2-0]
Control Code Bits 2 through 0
These bits specify the control code (that is, the manner in which the
information in bits COM[4-0] is to be used). If CNT[2-0] are all zero,
then the special command selected by COM[4-0] is executed; otherwise,
the hidden register selected by CNT[2-0] is loaded with the data from
COM[4-0].
