Fron the Cloud9tech site:

"Here's a simple test that will determine if your Multi-Pak has already been 
upgraded to work with a CoCo 3. From BASIC's OK prompt, type PRINT 
PEEK(&HFF90) and press ENTER. If 126 is returned then the Multi-Pak has been 
upgraded. If it returns 255 then it has NOT been upgraded."
