the Input Size and Output Size boxes. Since the adapter always uses
the 32-bit Logic Status, 32-bit Feedback, and a 32-bit word

profile, at least three 32-bit words must be set for the Input Size.
The adapter also uses the 32-bit Logic Command and 32-bit
Reference, requiring at least two 32-bit words for the Output Size.
