Anatomy

The Console is composed by two panels.


The top panel contains the HLT, START, CONT and RESET buttons, the STEP, INT, DMA and POWER switches and different status Lamps. Using these controls, the operator defines the operational mode of the machine.

The bottom panel provides the (17-Lamps) Address Display, the (8-Lamps) Data Display and the (17) Entry Switches as well as EXAM-, EXAM+, LOAD and DEPOSIT buttons. Using this panel, the operator can examine and modify content into either memory or I/O as well as to define the starting address for program execution.
