PCI-8254 / PCI-8258
After an axis movement is set to startup-by-trigger mode it enters
the trigger waiting status, i.e. the WAIT signal of Bit 10 in table
below is ON. You may display its signal status with function library,
the motion status monitoring function is
I32 APS_motion_status ();
See figure below for an illustration of motion set to trigger waiting
