Control port
The control register allows the external control pins C[0:5]
to be read and written and the status of the PACK and
VFLY inputs to be inspected. The C[0:5] bits manipulate
the C[0:5] I/O port. When read, they reflect the current
state of these pins. When written LOW the output pin is
driven LOW. These outputs are open-drain, and if
programmed HIGH the pin is undriven and may be
treated as an input.
On reset all bits in the control register are set to 1.

C[7]
VFLYBK
Allows the state of the (VFLYBK)
and Test Mode signal to be inspected.
This bit will be read HIGH during
vertical flyback and LOW during
display. See VIDC datasheet for
details. This bit MUST be
programmed HIGH to select normal
operation of the chip.
C[6]
PACK 8 Test
Allows the state of the parallel printer
Mode
acknowledge input to be inspected.
This bit MUST be programmed HIGH
to select normal operation of the chip.
C[5]
SMUTE
This controls the muting of the internal
speaker. It is programmed HIGH to
mute the speaker and LOW to enable
it. The speaker is muted on reset.
C[4]
Available on the Auxiliary I/O
connector.
C[3]
Programmed HIGH, unless Reset
Mask is required.
C[2]
READY
Used as the floppy disc (READY)
input and must be programmed HIGH.
C[1:0]
SDA, SCL
The C[0:1] pins are used to implement
the I2C bus the bi-directional serial
I2C bus to which the Real Time Clock
and battery-backed RAM are
connected.
