Set RD_DATA port

Definition 
The location of the READ_DATA port is determined by writing to 
this register. Bits[7:0] become ISA I/O read port address bits[9:2]. 
Address bits[1:0] of the READ_DATA port are always 1. 
A read to this register causes a PnP card in the 
Isolation
 state to 
compare one bit of the card's serial ID. This process will be described 
in more details in section 6. 
Bit[0] - Reset command  
Setting this bit will reset all logical devices and restore configuration 
registers to their power-up values. 
The CSN is preserved. 
Bit[1] - Wait for Key command 
Setting this bit makes the PnP card return to the 
Wait for Key
 state. The CSN is preserved. 
Bit[2] - PnP Reset CSN command 
Setting this bit will reset the card's CSN to 0.  
Both the CSN (index 06H) and CSNSAV (index F5H) registers are 
reset.  
Note that the hardware will automatically clear the bits and there is 
no need for software to clear them. 
A write to this register will cause all cards that have a CSN that 
matches the write data[7:0] to go from the 
Sleep 
state to either the 
Isolation
 state if the write data for this command is zero or the 
Config
 state if the write data is not zero.  
A read from this register reads the next byte of resource data. The 
Status register must be polled until bit[0] is set before this register 
may be read.  
Bit[0] when set indicates it is okay to read the next data byte from the 
Resource Data register. 
A write to this register sets a card's CSN. The CSN is a value 
uniquely assigned to each ISA PnP card after the serial identification 
process so that each card may be individually selected during a 
Wake[CSN] command. The CSN value written to this register will 
also be recorded to the CSNSAV register located at PnP register 
index F5H and Group 1 Page3 offset 08H.
