The active level appears to be runtime configurable and dependent on the
selected function. For power control it can be used to control force-on
(active high), force-off (active low) or both; and for time aiding
sampling on falling or rising edge is also configurable. And who knows
what else this pin is used for next time they update the firmware. ;)

Shall I remove the property, or just add "input" as suggested above?

Thanks,
Johan
