I vaguely recall that if you do it that way, you need to explicitly
execute an IN operation to retrieve the LDA and an OUT operation to set
it. If you specify UDS instead of DS, you don't need the DTAARA(*LDA),
and then the cycle takes care of the IN and OUT. It's been quite a while
though, so check the docs.
