repetitions
These bits set the number of times a message is played
back in one-shot operation mode. In level operation mode
this bit has no function. The repetition value can be set
from 0 to 9, or to F. When F is specified, the message is
played back repeatedly. When 0 is specified, the message
is played back only once. Values A to E if specified, default
to 9.

Repetition interval
These bits set (in BCD) the playback repetition interval.
Bits 11 to 08 set the digit to the left of the decimal point (0
to 9 seconds) and bits 07 to 04 sets the digit to the right of
the decimal point (0.0 to 0.9 seconds). Note: if a non BCD
value is specified the repetition interval defaults to 0.0
second.

bits corresponds to a message number, the correspondence between bits and messages is shown below.
