The DEV_CTRL_CODE_2 through DEV_CTRL_CODE_0 signals provide a binary code to the drive
to control functions such as FC link rate, Power Failure Warning (PFW) and Hard Reset. The control
function is either identified by a code or a sequence of codes on the DEV_CTRL_CODE signals.
Table 9 lists the functions and the associated codes that use a decode value on the
DEV_CTRL_CODE signals.

The Hard Reset function uses a sequence of values on the DEV_CTRL_CODE signals. The
sequence is 5, 1, 3, 2, 3, 1 and 5. A drive detecting a valid Hard Reset sequence shall perform the
equivalent of a power-on reset.

4.7K ohm pull-up resistors to 3.3V are provided on the drive for both DEV_CTRL_CODE_2,
DEV_CTRL_CODE_1 and DEV_CTRL_CODE_0 to ensure that each signal is maintained in its high
state unless a low is provided from the backplane.

Note: Please refer to the SFF-8045 Specification for more information.
