Some BiSS devices require 24V power which has to be brought in
externally. Pins 4, and 12 are unused in this case, leave floating.
Hardware capture is not available with Serial encoders
Configuring BiSS
Configuring the BiSS protocol requires the programming of two essential control registers:
Global Control Registers
Channel Control Registers
The resulting data is found in:
BiSS-C/BiSS-B Data Registers
