IO_INP_CTRL 1-2
The Polarity flag determines whether the input is low active (0) or high
active (1). The input mode can be seen in the following table. The PinState
flag is used to query the current status of the input.
For inputs, the PinState bit refers to the inverted output side of the optical
coupler. This means that an open input sets the PinState bit to 1.
ID Mode Default
0x00 Off
0x01 Reserved
0x02 Trigger input
Input 1
0x03 Reserved
0x06..0x0F Reserved

If you set more than 1 input to function as a trigger input,
all trigger inputs are anded.
