CONFIGURE Cn

Ports 1 thru 5 are configured as inputs or outputs with the Configure command.

Each port is eight bits wide. At power-on, all ports are initialized as inputs. The
Configure command is usually the first command to be sent after power on. All ports
programmed as outputs will be set to a logic zero after receiving the Configure
command. The actual output level is dependent on the Invert command (I16).

Cn Mode n (0 thru 5) defines which ports are input and output
