Creating 2 sub-categories
Table 9 shows how two sub-categories can be created by reserving the FAIL input
status signal (binary weight 40 hex) for the selector. Up to 8 status messages can
be defined for each sub-category, with the VOTE, RECEIVE and DISABLE input
status signals selecting between each status message.

Table 9 - 2 Sub-categories / 8 States Each
Note: In Table 9, any bit or input status signal shown as a 1 is an active input
signal and any bit shown as a 0 is an inactive input signal. For the MCN system,
all I/O signals are active low, so any active input status signal is low at the CIB or
IOB I/O connector and any inactive input status signal is high at the CIB or IOB
I/O connector.
