FUNCTION
Individually selects one of the four possible Counter/Timer gate input signal sources for each of
the six counter/timers on the PC215E board. The selected source will then appear on the gate
input of the specified counter/timer.
The Four Gate Sources
The four possible gate sources are as follows:
1. VCC (internal +5V d.c.) i.e. gate permanently enabled
2. GND (internal 0V d.c.) i.e. gate permanently disabled
3. The counter/timer's GAT input from the SK1 connector
4. OUT n-2 the inverted output of counter/timer n-2
