Notes:
1. Board DIP-switches SW1-1 to SW1-4 are currently used to set the addresses of the boards on the UBUS
1. Board DIP-switches SW1-1 to SW1-4 are currently used to set the addresses of the boards on the UBUS
backplane. A 0 is ON (Closed); a 1 is OFF (Open). The E1 jumper on the back of the Acc-Ux UBUS
backplane board must be ON to use the DIP-switch addressing. SW1-5 and SW1-6 must be ON (Closed).
backplane board must be ON to use the DIP-switch addressing. SW1-5 and SW1-6 must be ON (Closed).
2. For diagnostic purposes only. The four Y registers starting at this address contain the information used to
assemble this I-variable.
I4910 to I4925 have multiple fields of information, which can be reported individually or in groups,
depending on the setting of I39. The following table shows what each field reports.

The Vendor ID field is an 8-bit value that reports the manufacturer of the board. Delta Tau boards
report a value of 1 in this field.

Typically, the Options field is a 10-bit field that is used as a set of individual bits to report which
options are present on the board. The meaning of each bit is board-dependent.
options are present on the board. The meaning of each bit is board-dependent.
The Revision Number field is a 4-bit value that represents the design revision (0 to 15) of the board.
For Delta Tau boards, this value matches the x in the –10x part number suffix for the board.
For Delta Tau boards, this value matches the x in the –10x part number suffix for the board.
The Card ID field is a 14-bit value that represents the part number of the board. For Delta Tau
boards, this value matches the xxxx in the 60xxxx (decimal) main part number for the board.

The Base Address field is a 19-bit value that represents the starting address of the board in the Turbo
PMAC’s address space.
