IRQ except one. Set that port block as the example 4.3. This provides the pull-down resistor circuit that makes sharing of IRQ’s possible. If you are using more than one ACB-188 or a compatible card in a bus you should only have one port set as Figure 4.3.

(RTS) on the SCC (WR5 bit D1). Clock Detect The ACB-188 implements a clock detect circuit that functions as a “missing pulse detector”. This utilizes a “one shot” circuit that generates a low or active signal on DCD when a clock is present, or when its connected to a device generating a 400 Hz or greater signal.
