Configuring an M1 CPU with Modsoft

Specifying an M1 Processor Type

Introduction

Once you have selected an M1 Processor Adapter in Modsoft 2.6, you must

 

 

choose between three types of M1 processors.

 

 

λ

A 2.4K machine

 

 

 

 

λ

A 12.0K machine

 

 

 

 

λ

An 18.0K machine

 

 

These numbers refer to the amount of user memory in the CPU.

Which Type

 

 

 

Use the table below to determine which processor type to choose:

If You Choose If you choose the wrong machine type for the CPU you are configuring, you can run

the Wrong Type into the following kinds of problems:

λIf you specify too much memory, Modsoft allows you to create a configuration and logic program that could be too big for the CPU you are using. When you try to transfer your program to the CPU, your transfer will fail.

λIf you specify too little memory, Modsoft restricts the size of your configuration and logic program, and may not allow you to I/O Map an I/OBus network (as described in I/O Mapping an I/OBus Network with Modsoft on page 247).
