Bit 5-Diskette
2: Indicates that a diskette 2 is located in
the diskette drive. This line is tested after the index pulse
has been checked.
Bit 6-CRC Error:
Indicates that the CRC read from the
diskette did not agree with the generated CRC.
Bit 7-ReadlWrite Overrun:
Indicates that the processor
did not service an interrupt. Detection of an overrun
causes the adapter to reset to the access mode.
Status Byte B
Bit O-New Media:
Indicates that the diskette drive cover
is open.
Bit 1-MFM Mode:
Sets the adapter to the desired record-
ing mode.
1

MFM
0=
FM
Bit 2-lnner Track Select (filter control):
Sets the inner
track select (filter control) latch. 1=on
(>
track 60),
O=off
«
track-60). This latch is used with the inner
tracks bit to further compensate for bit shifting beyond
cylinder 60. The latch is only used during a read
operation.
Bit 3-lnner Tracks:
Sets the inner tracks latch. 1 =on
(>
track 42), O=off
«
track 42). This bit is used on a
write operation to reduce the amount of recording current
beyond track 42. On a read operation this bit is used to
compensate for bit shifting beyond track 42.
Bit4-Head Engage:
Indicates if the heads are loaded.
(1=Lower heads; O=Raise heads).
Bit 5-Head Selected:
Indicates which side of the diskette
is being used. (1=side 1; O=side 0).
Bit 6-Access Lines:
Controls the movement of the heads
from track to track.
Bit 7-Access Lines:
Controls the movement of the heads
from track to track.
