6.1.4 RTD ISA ID RTD ID is a method to identify a board on the ISA bus. There are two 8-bit registers mapped at . The registers can be read as two 8-bit or one 16-bit. An internal pointer is auto-incremented with every read to either address so the data read will step through each index as indicated below.
