The first field in the table contains the ramp/soak flag address. An entry
in this field causes ramp/soak data to be written from the ramp/soak
variable (LRSF) to another address, as described above. The address can
be either a bit (Y or C) that allocates 5 contiguous bits, or a word (WY or
V) that allocates one word for ramp/soak data. The format of the bits in a
ramp/soak flag address correspond to the individual bits making up the
16-bit word LRSF. Bits are defined in Table 9.2.
