command is used to check the correct operation of this interface.
- The value order of the inputs is ‘Direction’, ‘Disable’, and ‘Step’;
in descending order.
‘Direction’ has the value 4 (100)
‘Disable’ has the value 2 (010)
‘Step’ has the value 1 (001)
TI -
#ATI
Reads the
switch inputs
Test Inputs - Query only
