The CPU Bus Link Area is disabled by default in the PC Setup and must be
enabled with the CVSS/SSS in order to use the Data Link Area.
The 120 words of CPU Bus Link Area from G008 to G127 are used for outputs
from the CPU to BASIC Units. The 128 words from G128 to G255 are used for
outputs from the BASIC Units. These are divided into 16 groups of 8 words each
and allocated to CPU Bus Units according their unit number settings as shown in
the following tables. All words not output by a particular BASIC Unit are read by it
as inputs from the other BASIC Units.
Unit # 0 1
Words G128 G136
to to
G135 G143
Unit # 8 9
Words G192 G200
to to
G199 G207
When the PC Setup have been changed to enable the CPU Bus Link, bit 15 of
the first word allocated to each Unit (e.g., bit G12815 for Unit #0) will be OFF
during data reception.
The Auxiliary Area contains flags and control bits used for monitoring and
controlling PC operation, accessing clock pulses, and signalling errors. Auxil-
iary Area word addresses range from A000 through A511; bit addresses,
from A00000 through A51115. Addresses A000 through A255 are read/write,
but addresses A256 through A511 are read only.
The Force Set/Reset operations from the CVSS/SSS behave like the
SET(016) and RSET(017) instructions when applied to words A000 through
A255.
Unused Auxiliary Area words and bits cannot be used as work words and
bits.
The Auxiliary Area contains two sections. The section between A000 and A255
can be read from or written to from the user program. The section between A256
and A511, however, can be read from to access the data provided there, but it
cannot be written to from the user program.
The following table lists the functions of Auxiliary Area flags and control bits.
Most of these bits are described in more detail following the table. Descrip-
tions are in order by address, except that some bits/words with related func-
tions are explained together.
