> I need to understand which bits you're talking about in your register.

In the above example, bits 0 and 1 of register 0x0 control pins 1
through 4 and bit 0 of register 0x4 controls pins 5 through 8. The
moment you write a new value in either of those registers, all four pins
will change functionality simultaneously. There is no way to control the
functionality of each pin individually.
