Yes, you are correct. The low order bits are NOT clear! The code I
provided was based on an instrument that did not use the low bits!
However, the the rest is CORRECT we've used it for several data 
transfers and it works! Maybe we are talking about more than the
byte order... Give me a call if you have any questions.
