Ah, ok..  

I think I have a pretty clear picture now between the Lomont doc and something Jim
sent me that appears to possibly be based on it (but different).

*SCS is active for $FF40-$FF5F if I understand correctly (R&W).  I think if I place
the 5 addresses I need at the upper end of this I should be ok staying out of the way
(and have the help of *SCS in doing so).

I had it at the lower end of the *SCS region, but it looked like the SDC modifies a reg
on it’s initial search for other disk controllers (just a guess, I don’t know the procedure used).
Not a big deal as it can easily be corrected in software once running, but if I can stay 
completely clear I’d rather.

So I’m thinking $FF5B-$FF5F in conjunction with *SCS will be ok for decoding register
access.  Easy to change if an issue crops up at least.  :)

I’m trying to put together on a spreadsheetall the known addresses.So far I have what’s covered in Chris Lomont’s very useful programming reference…<http://www.lomont.org/Software/Misc/CoCo/Lomont_CoCoHardware.pdf>Are there others that anyone knows of?I’m in the process of selecting addresses for the CoCo YM2149 cart, and don’t want to conflictwith anything.  I have the CPLD programming pretty much developed, and everything seems to be working.I should be able to show it playing some register dumps very soon.  :)Pics of assembled boards… <https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1sgl615FlGnM0Jna3ByeVVfaHM>Project page…<https://sites.google.com/site/thezippsterzone/coco-psg <https://sites.google.com/site/thezippsterzone/coco-psg>>- Ed-- Coco mailing listCoco at maltedmedia.comhttps://pairlist5.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
