MISCELLANEOUS TECHNICAL NOTES

The Super BIOS revision includes the following features not found in other revisions: ability to format bad tracks, dual controller operation, automatic configuration, virtual drive operation, and PC/AT compatibility. This controller has a built-in low-level format program. To enter the program run the DEBUG utility supplied with DOS and at the prompt enter: G=C800:5. Two additional jumpers may be present, W1 & W2, and are reserved for factory use and must not be changed.
