Slot-Select Register
The Slot-Select Register contains 16 bits that determine which module in which chassis will be
enabled for communication when the SLOT0SEL* line is high. An SCXI-1000 chassis will
select the appropriate module in its chassis, regardless of the chassis number written. The
Slot-Select Register will shift in the data present on the MOSI line, bit 16 first, when
SLOT0SEL* is low.
