DISK/TAPE CONTROLLER DATA

B

Disk/Tape Controller Modules Supported

The following VMEbus disk/tape controller modules are supported by the 166Bug. The default address for each controller type is First Address and the controller can be addressed by First CLUN during commands BH, BO, or IOP, or during TRAP #15 calls .DSKRD or .DSKWR. Note that if another controller of the same type is used, the second one must have its address changed by its onboard jumpers and/or switches, so that it matches Second Address and can be called up by Second CLUN.
