Brake output X25, new status bit Stat1.Bit7 (brake open) for brake control (as of V3.0)

Function extension:
The current switching status of the holding brake (at X25) is now displayd in status word 1 of the new status bit Stat1.Bit7. It can therefore be used as feedback to the master control:

• Stat1.Bit7 = 1: Brake open (relay output (X25) triggered, relay contact closed)
• Stat1.Bit7 = 0: Brake closed (relay output (X25) not triggered, relay contact open)

In the 'brake logic deactivated' (C4020 = 0) state, the brake remains permanently released and the status bit remains permanently set (Stat1.Bit7=1).
If the brake logic is activated (C4020=1, C4020=2) the status bit Stat1.Bit7 is switched in accordance with the current signal status at the brake relay output X25.
