A: set_write_register(0x6b, 0x08); with and without preserving reg_0x6b:
    There is a small audible motor sound, but no movement.
    Windows driver does a small forward , backward movement of scan head.

I'm wondering of the effects of playing with bit 2 and 3 of register 0x6b.
According to my spec of gl841 vers. 1.7 p 42,43 bit 0 and 1 and for GPO 17 & 18,
bit 2 & 3 are reserved ;-) .
