Notifying the NT600S Status by Using Allocated Bits and Words ..... PT Status Notify Area (PT to PC)

The PT status notify area (PT to PC) is provided to notify the NT600S status
changes to the PC. When any NT600S status has changed, such change is written
to this area in the PC, and the PC will read the data from this area to check the
NT600S status.

The PT status notify area is configured as three consecutive words as shown be-
