+Description:
+		Configure the counter associated with Signal Y for
+		non-synchronous or synchronous load mode. Synchronous load mode
+		cannot be selected in non-quadrature (Pulse-Direction) clock
+		mode.
+
+		Non-synchronous:
+			A logic low level is the active level at this index
+			input. The index function (as enabled via preset_enable)
+			is performed directly on the active level of the index
+			input.
+
+		Synchronous:
+			Intended for interfacing with encoder Index output in
+			quadrature clock mode. The active level is configured
+			via index_polarity. The index function (as enabled via
+			preset_enable) is performed synchronously with the
+			quadrature clock on the active level of the index input.
