A type of register used in an FST or a calculation. A monitor register can
be written into or read by the device containing the register, but other
PROVOX system devices can only read its value.
MonitorĆReference Register
A type of register used in an FST or a calculation. A monitorĆreference
register can be written into or read by both the device containing the
register and other PROVOX system devices.
