NOTE: Data bit 8 is interpreted as either data bit 8 or PI signal, but
never both. When enabled as data bit 8, data bit 8 has priority 
over the PI signal, and all data above hex 7F is used to access 
character data and not to interpret PI line data. 
Conversely, when data bit 8 is disabled and the PI signal is 
used, data bit 8 of the data is reserved for use as the PI 
function, and you cannot access characters in the hex 80-FF 
range. Therefore, to access characters in the hex 80-FF range, 
data bit 8 must be enabled.
