5 ADDRESSINGThe MPA-200 occupies a continuous 8 byte block of I/O addresses. For example,if the base address is set to 300H, then the MPA-200 will occ
The first four bytes, Base+0 through Base+3, of address space on the MPA-200contain the internal registers of the SCC. The next two locations Base+4
6 INTERRUPTSThe MPA-200 supports eleven interrupt levels: IRQ2 -7, IRQ10 - 12, and IRQ14- 15. The interrupt level is selected through jumper blocks
