Jan, On ribon cable the lead that has the marking is simply there to make it easier to tell what lead is what on the other end. The marked lead usually denotes pin one, but not always. Remember that the drawing is show from a bottom view. Pin 9 is + (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

John, I think it lies in the Pcode, in other words if the pcode sets the 0x8000 to 1 then any program loaded that has main() in it will auto run at startup. If the pcode does NOT set 0x8000 to 1 then no matter what you have loaded as a program it (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Dan, Perhaps I'm misinterpreting what you mean by "a startup program". To me, a "startup program" means there is a file downloaded to the HB that contains a " main() " function, i.e., a function which will automatically be executed upon startup (...)

John, I just did the same test, I think what Fred was saying is that IC sets the 0x8000 to accept a startup program if one is loaded. If I poke a 0 to that address then load any program it sets back to 1. I think he was wandering if your IC version (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
