Via the entry New Messages Available the user receives information that new messages are available. The
messages can be read out via CompleteAccess (a CoE read command for the complete CoE object
0x10F3). The New Messages Available bit is reset after reading the messages.
The sending of emergency messages to the EtherCAT master is activated by adding the CoE object
0x10F3:05 to the startup list (Transition IP, value 0x0001). If new diagnostic messages arrive, they are
entered in object 0x10F3 and additionally sent by emergency to the EtherCAT master.
