Triggering a Message by Sending a Bit Trigger Table
It takes only a single bit (set)
to
trigger a message. The position of a
bit (in the Bit Trigger Table) corresponds to a message number. Bit
00 of WORD 1 corresponds to message number 1; bit 01 of WORD
1 corresponds to message number 2; and so on. The total number of
messages that can be triggered depends on rack size allowed:
