Table D-8 Additional Bus Checkpoints
While control is inside the different bus routines, additional
checkpoints are output to I/O port address 0080h as word to identify the
routines being executed.
These are word checkpoints. The low byte of checkpoint is the system
BIOS checkpoint where control is passed to the different bus routines.
The high byte of checkpoint indicates that the routine is being executed
in different buses. This information will not be shown on POST code
display because this device is 8-bit only. However, it can be seen in any
equipment connected to I/O port address 0080h.
