Bit	Bit	Function
Number	Mnemonic
7	TF2	Timer 2 Overflow Flag:
		Set by timer 2 overflow. Must be cleared by software. TF2 is not set if
		RCLK = 1 or TCLK = 1.
6	EXF2	Timer 2 External Flag:
		If EXEN2 = 1, capture or reload caused by a negative transition on T2EX
		sets EFX2. EXF2 does not cause an interrupt in up/down counter mode
		(DCEN = 1).
5	RCLK	Receive Clock Bit:
		Selects timer 2 overflow pulses (RCLK = 1) or timer 1 overflow pulses
		(RCLK = 0) as the baud rate generator for serial port modes 1 and 3.
4	TCLK	Transmit Clock Bit:
		Selects timer 2 overflow pulses (TCLK = 1) or timer 1 overflow pulses
		(TCLK = 0) as the baud rate generator for serial port modes 1 and 3.
3	EXEN2	Timer 2 External Enable Bit:
		Setting EXEN2 causes a capture or reload to occur as a result of a
		negative transition on T2EX unless timer 2 is being used as the baud
		rate generator for the serial port. Clearing EXEN2 causes timer 2 to
		ignore events at T2EX.
2	TR2	Timer 2 Run Control Bit:
		Setting this bit starts the timer.
1	C/T2#	Timer 2 Counter/Timer Select:
		C/T2# = 0 selects timer operation: timer 2 counts the divided-down
		system clock. C/T2# = 1 selects counter operation: timer 2 counts
		negative transitions on external pin T2.
0	CP/RL2#	Capture/Reload Bit:
		When set, captures occur on negative transitions at T2EX if EXEN2 = 1.
		When cleared, auto-reloads occur on timer 2 overflows or negative
		transitions at T2EX if EXEN2 = 1. The CP/RL2# bit is ignored and timer 2
		forced to auto-reload on timer 2 overflow, if RCLK = 1 or TCLK = 1.
