8 switches
Four groups (labeled RTC1, RTC2, RTC3, and STC) of 2 switches
each (labeled SO and 51), used for selecting the real-time clock
frequencies; each of the three real-time clock counters and the one
subjective clock counter may have their frequencies selected by the
proper combination of the two switches associated with each counter:

Function
Lighted when unit power is shut down due to abnormal operational
condition.
When in up or middle position, enables power-on control in the
unit power supply. (Middle position inhibits the unit reset signal.)
When .in down position, power to unit is off.
Determines to which central shared resources the reset signal is
connected.
Selects which clock the memory shall use; up position selects system
c.lock A, down position selects system clock B.
Establishes the logical address of the unit within a group of memory
units.
Down position disables, up enables, corresponding port when setting
up different configuration in the system. Switch 1 (leftmost) cor-
responds to port 1, etc., and switch 6 corresponds to port 6.
Up position selects interleave addressing mode in each memory unit;
down position means no interleaving in any memory unit.
Only
two-way interleaving is allowed. The unit interleaved with this
memory unit must have its interleave switch on and be in the appro-
priate addressing range. The interleave logic operates only for
memory units with a number corresponding to a power of 2: i. e. ,
16K, 32K words; if other than a power of 2, the interleave signal
it receives is ignored. Interleaving is permissible only:
1.
Between two memory units of the same size.
I
2.
I
Provided the·two memory units cover an addressing range that
is continuous and starts at a multiple of the size of the two
memory units taken together.
