9.2.2.4 Reading bits
Reading individual bits which are not contained directly in the read window is
only possible with a corresponding function number and the data in Read_
Data (Byte 0-3) of the read window. In those bytes, the bits must be evaluat
ed individually.
The procedure is the same as that described in ChapterReading data.
9.2.3 Reading and writing bits directly
For reading status bits and for writing direct control bits, no procedure is re
quired. The general status bits are always provided and need not be request
ed. The direct control bits are also available continuously.
9.2.3.1 Reading status bit
The status bits in bytes 5-7 of the read window are always available and can
be read directly by the master.
