DFAIR When this bit is high, the DMAC requester operates in fair
mode. It waits until its request level is inactive before
requesting the VMEbus. When this bit is low, the DMAC
requester does not operate in fair mode.
DTBL The DMAC operates in direct mode when this bit is low,
and it operates in command chaining mode when this bit
is high.
DEN The DMAC is enabled when this bit is set high. This bit
always reads 0.
DHALT When this bit is high, the DMAC halts at the end of a

chaining mode. When this bit is low, the DMAC executes
the next command in the list.
