EOC is the end of conversion flag from the A/D converter. A one means the A/D is
busy with a conversion. A zero indicates that the conversion is complete and the data
from the most recently triggered A/D conversion may be read from base + 0 and 1.

DIn 2 / Ex Trig is always one when an external trigger source has been selected via
the TRG bits in Base + 3. Otherwise the status of the TTL input on pin 13 may be
read from this bit. See Base + 3.

Digital Input 0 and 1 are the PCM-DAS08 15 pin connector digital inputs. The
inputs are not latched. Each read gives the current status of the input lines. A zero
equals TTL low and a one equals TTL high.

MA2 to MA0 are the current A/D channel addresses.
