Figure 4-2 EN311 Mode Transition
The EN311's operation statuses (station statuses) are allocated to the special registers

EN311. Each bit of the station status has the following meaning. Note that in judging 
whether the mode is Initialize, Run or Standby, view the value as a register.
• Station status area address (word address) ••• 16#7EFF(Decimal: 32511)
• Station status format
