Slot-Select Register

The Slot-Select Register contains 16 bits that determine which module in which chassis will
be enabled for communication when the SLOT0SEL* line is set to one. An SCXI-1000
chassis will select the appropriate module in its chassis, regardless of the chassis number
written. The Slot-Select Register will shift in the data present on the MOSI line, bit 16 first,
when SLOT0SEL* is cleared to zero.
