'Address may be used to return the address of the first element allocated to X. 'Address may also be used to set the address of X for stand-alone objects and program units, RM 13.3(12).

Device_Input_Value: Interfaces.Unsigned_32; Device_Input_Value'Address System.Storage_Elements.To_Address (16#8000_05C4#);
