MISCELLANEOUS TECHNICAL NOTES

Older motherboards that do not have the capability to route IRQ24 and IRQ15 to the PCI slots, require you to use the separate paddle card to transfer those signals to the PCI bus. The paddle card is inserted in an ISA slot and connected to W1 on the controller board with a 10-pin cable.
