In case of operator A/U, the value 0x06E1 is returned. In other words the following PMC and SMC are available to A/U: PMC1 / PMC6 / SMC1 / SMC2 / SMC4 / SMC5

In case of operator S, the value 0x066E1 is returned. In other words the following PMC and SMC

are available to S: PMC1 / PMC6 / SMC1 / SMC2 / SMC4 / SMC5 / SMC8 / SMC9
