Description: SECOND is a low-level serial routine used to send a secondary address (SA) to a LISTENing device (see LISTEN Kernal call). An SA is usually used to provide setup information to a device before the actual data I/O operation begins. Attention is released after a call to SECOND. SECOND is not used to send an SA to a TALKing device (see TKSA). (Most applications should use the higher level I/O routines: see OPEN and CHKOUT).

EXAMPLE:

	LDA	#8
	JSR	$FF81	;LISTEN device 8
	LDA	#15
	JSR	$FF93	;pass it SA # 15
