Interconnecting signals using BICO technology
To interconnect two signals, a BICO input parameter (signal sink) must be as-
signed to the desired BICO output parameter (signal source).
The following information is required in order to connect a binector/connector input
to a binector/connector output:
S Binectors: Parameter number, bit number and drive object ID
S Connectors with no index: Parameter number and drive object ID
S Connectors with index: Parameter number and index and drive object ID
