RDY (Ready)
When this bit is set, the module is operational. The RDY-Bit should always be set
by the module. If this bit is not set a system error has occurred and the
communication between controller and module is not possible.
RUN (Run)
When the RUN-bit is set, the module is ready for communication. Otherwise an
initialization error or incorrect Parameterization occurs.
COM (Communication)
When this bit is set, the communication is started and the module is engaged in
cyclic data exchange with the Master.

These three bits are the most important bits that the controller application can
use to monitor the communication and operating status of the module
