Status (R) Base + 2
h
This register reads back the card's status. Currently the status
is defined as the state of the relay timer. The relay timer has
two timers wire-OR'd together. One timer is designed for the
slower armature relays (>16 ms) and the second designed for
the faster reed relays (>500 μs). The timers restart whenever
the registers controlling the respective relays are written to or
the card is reset. The card remains in the busy state until both
timers have timed out.
