command has been executed. All flags are set to OFF at Power-ON/Reset.
The Unit state is not restored after a Power-Down of the Unit.
Note If multiple bits in the range of Bit 00 to 03 are set simultaneously, the com-
mand is ignored, the bits are set to OFF again and the Mode command error
flag in Master status 2 word is set, see
