MISCELLANEOUS TECHNICAL NOTES

The function of JP1 is to determine the select technique used to interface the host adapter.

Soldering Pin 2 to Pin "P" allows for the "pulse" select that is used by controllers designed to work with SASI hosts. Soldering Pin 2 to Pin "H" or "L" allows for the "level" select signal used in accordance with SCSI standards.
