(1) Status byte register (STB)
The status byte register is an 8-bit register whose contents are output
from the 3560 to the controller, when serial polling is being performed.
If even only one bit in the status byte register has changed from 0 to 1
(provided that it is a bit which has been set in the service request enable
register as a bit which can be used), then the MSS bit is set to 1.
Simultaneously with this the SRQ bit is set to 1, and service request is
generated.
The RQS bit is synchronized with service requests, and is read out and
simultaneously cleared when serial polling is being performed. Although
the MSS bit is only read out on an *STB? query, on a *CLS command for
example it is not cleared until the event is cleared.
(2) Service request enable register (SRER)
This register masks the status byte register. Setting a bit of this register
to 1 enables the corresponding bit of the status byte register to be used.
